$\begingroup$ +1 it can be compared to volcanism. A rocky desert at first, then nature takes over again. $\endgroup$

$\begingroup$ Great response, thank you! I wasn't sure if an intense heat that burned away nearly all the vegetable matter would be enough to prevent the land from retaining any water/nutrients capable of sustaining future growth. Wish I could give you an extra +1 for the parallel to our own world leaders haha $\endgroup$

$\begingroup$ @Goodies At Ground Zero, I reason it'll be worse than a normal volcano. Stone vaporising heat is going to leave something much more inert than normal lava. Even calcium disappears at 3000 deg C. You're going to be left with quartz, alumina and mullite. There's going to be no nutrients for the normal recovery process. $\endgroup$
