'''''Captain America: Civil War''''' is a sequel to both ''Captain America'' movies and the ''Avengers'' movies before it, released in May 2016. It is the 13ththirteenth film released in the [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]] continuity, and it's the first film of its Phase 3. It is based on the ''[[Civil War (Comic Book)|Civil War]]'' limited series comics, though on a severely lesser level.
 
After one particular disastrous mission of the Avengers in Lagos, Nigeria, over a hundred nations sign the Sokovia Accords, which would turn the Avengers from a private enterprise into basically the enforcers of the United Nations. Tony Stark and Steven Rogers find themselves on the opposite side of the issue: Rogers doesn't want personal responsibility being taken away from him and given to politicians he doesn't trust, while Stark feels guilt from all incidental victims of the Avengers' actions and says they will be no different from villains if they are still independent.
 
The signing of the accords in Vienna, Austria is bombed by someone whom authorities identify as [[Bucky Barnes]], the Winter Soldier. Locating Bucky in Berlin, Germany, Steve goes after him while fighting off German police without any kind of authorization. Thanks to the signing of the Accords, that makes him now a criminal.
 
Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo. Produced by Marvel Studios. Distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures.

* [[Mythology Gag]]: Sharon Carter's eulogy during Peggy's funeral is word-by-word quote used by the comics version of Steve to justify his actions to Spider-Man during the original [[Civil War (Comic Book)|''Civil War'' comic book]].
