The last city to be destroyed, when not in a war, was Hancor on February 3, 1993. A training accident happened when a F-5E Tiger II hit a TU-95 Bear carrying an experimental nuclear weapon. The nuke went off and destroyed the city. 12 crew and 3,270 civilians died with 193 dying later from radiation. This incident stopped Chistanad's nuclear building program indefinitely.

The most recent was Sulan when Russ forces bombed it before invading. It was bombed on March 7, 2009. Chistanad finally took it back on April 28, 2012.

Nope. The last cities destroyed (as in 90%+ totally flattened) were in 1945 when we haven't even had independence.

Some cities have suffered a lot of damage from French and Soviet bombs and attacks from the Second World War in the early 1940's; examples are: Vienna, Budapest, Preßburg, Lemberg, Prague, Dresden, Königsberg, Berlin, Bonn, Düsseldorf, Köln, Mainz, Karlsruhe, Saarbrücken, Turin, Genoa, Lucca, Milan, and Mantua.
The most recent was when Sarajevo and Belgrade were ravaged by rebels in the 1990s, but all is well there.

The last recorded 'city' to be destroyed was back in 1629... When English trooped obliterated the just-founded French colony of Nouveau-Normandie.

The once great city of Saxony. It was destroyed in the Firebombing of Saxony and the Great Fire of Saxony. In 2014 a team of Acharan planes dropped firebombs on the city and started a great fire after blowing up the Saxony Hotel. 98% of the city leveled.

210,000 people were killed and 1,200 military. 25,000 people were displace by this event. The city was left in ruins to show as a monument. It also lead to the motto.

The last city in Adab to be destroyed suffered its fate back in 1804. Apparently, its happy-go-lucky inhabitants had taken part in drunken parties, wild orgies, and cursed the name of the Emperor all day long, so the Emperor ordered that the entire city, located in central Mesopotamia, be razed down and its inhabitants scattered all over the country.

Nothing lately, however some cities were damaged in several battles in the Wallon and Luxembourg region by Populist France, however they were stopped and repelled by the Royal Neterlands Army with German and British backing.

The Eastern Samar city of Tacloban was almost completely wiped off the map during Bayong Yolanda (Typhoon Haiyan) killing over 10,000 people. It took about 3 years for the city to be completely rehabilitated back into a functional state.

The most recent one wasn't a city, more of a large town really with a population of 17,211, Bleak Meadow was abandonned after an explosion in a nearby lead mine blew thousands of tones of the toxic element sky high. To make matters worse, a fire started burning through sulfur seams under the town, releasing poisonous smoke into the air, blanketing the town.

This even occurred in 1972, 322 people died or were injured by the toxins and no one has lived in the spot own since.

The capital, Senmeri, was devastated in 1947 by a 6.9 magnitude earthquake known as the Great Tragedy which killed 63 people. It destroyed many of the fine buildings and palaces Senmeri was renowned for. However, the city has rebuilt itself into a truly modern city and is living memorial of the resilience of the Jasminian people.

The last one was a year ago, on April Zombie's Day. Several Olwean cities were overrun so badly that they could be considered destroyed, though all of the cities in question have since recovered.

Prior to that, you have to go back nearly a hundred years -- to 4897 -- to find an instance of an Olwean city being destroyed... in that case it was due to a tsunami.

The former capital city of Vega, along with a few much smaller towns and cities across the nation were affected by the Omega 26V1 incident on June 7, 1998. Although the asteriod Omega had largely fragmented within reentry into the atmosphere, along with a number of larger chunks destroyed by various railgun and missile installations around the globe.

Unfortunately many smaller fragments were able to make it through, and a number of coastal and desert areas in and outside of Rhenvalr were hit by the asteroids. Cities such as Vega suffered a few direct impacts, but it was mostly destroyed by the global rise of seawater that occurred during the Great Flood a week after the Omega incident.

The Omega incident, combined with the Great Flood, ultimately led to the joint corporate-military takeover of the nation that still exists today.

Bayville was bombed by foreign aircraft in World War II despite our nation being neutral. Many historical treasures were lost and although the city was eventually rebuilt in 1954, it is not the same as before.

Well, a number of German cities were left devastated by the Second World War; first off, the cities of Königsberg, Strasbourg, Aachen, Metz, Saarbrücken, München, and Danzig were left in ruins as a result of vicious urban battles that occurred with the Soviets, French, Austrians, and Sardinians. Then there were the cities of Düsseldorf, Breslau, Augsburg, Köln, Duisburg, Dortmund, Essen, Bremen, Ulm, Freiburg, Dresden, Stettin, and even the capital of Berlin itself that were damaged in bombing raids conducted by the Soviets, French, and Sardinians. Rebuilding those cities and renovating the historic castles, palaces, cathedrals, and other structures of note in those cities sometimes even took until the early 1960s before it was finally done but the memories of the thousands of civilians and servicesaurs alike from those cities who lost their lives in the war can never be repaired.

The last Escanthean city to be destroyed was New Trebizond during the Populist Revolts of 1960-1970, a massive rebel force overwhelmed the small city of 50,000 people which had fallen form grace since its days as the capital ended. The military clashed with the rebels in a brutal campaign to take back the city, and hundreds of thousands of combatants and nearly the entire civilian populace died before it was decided that the city would be evacuated and bombed with conventional bombs and others containing a biological warfare agent that poisons the land to this day, the rebels lost their entire force and as a result the rest of the war they would be fighting a guerrilla campaign due to the deaths of all the military traitors in that battle.
