Answer:

In 2011 dollars, World War II cost the most out of the listed wars.

Step-by-step explanation:

The American Revolution, fought between 1775 and 1783, and the Civil War, fought between 1861 and 1865, took place long before the concept of the US dollar as we know it today. Therefore, it is not possible to directly compare their costs in 2011 dollars.
