In what country was the scorched earth policy used?

The scorched earth policy has been used in several conflicts, but one notable example is during the American Civil War, particularly by General William Tecumseh Sherman in his "March to the Sea" in 1864. This strategy involved destroying infrastructure and resources to undermine the enemy's ability to sustain itself. Additionally, the policy has been employed in various forms in conflicts such as the Second Boer War in South Africa and during World War II by both the Nazis and Soviets.
