The great Chicago Fire
There were flames everywhere

Chicago was a beautiful city before the fire
Now after the fire I can't say the same it looked terrible ashes were everywhere

Luckily the fire didn't cause any other
disasters but the buildings
We're half burnt so a bunch of abiotic factors were screwed

The biodiversity probably changed a lot
