Or people from other countries rebuilt everything.
Could be a "lore" explanation for the introduction of the new races (male miqo'tes, female highlanders and female roegadyns)

My thoughts about rebuilding tho: the cities knew that a meteor was comin, so maybe they bunkered down somewhere (1950's bomb shelters!!) and came out once Bahamut was done throwin' his tantrum.

Adventurers were sent somewhere "safe" since we were in the direct line of combat maybe and not farther away like in the cities? I dunno.

Still, seems pretty weak that us "Brave adventurers" left the plebs to fend for themselves, then rebuild while we're napping. <_<
