Destruction of civilization

The destruction of civilization refers to events or processes that severely damage or collapse the societal structures, systems, and institutions that support everyday life. This can result from natural disasters, war, economic collapse, or environmental degradation. When these systems break down, it can lead to loss of infrastructure, governance, and social order, making it difficult for communities to function normally. Such destruction often causes widespread hardship, displacing populations and eroding cultural and technological progress built over generations. Restoring a civilization after destruction is complex and requires significant effort, resources, and time.
