Because demand exceeded supply. The first power grid overloaded and failed. The next grid, interconnected to the others, felt the load surge from first grid dropping out and failed under the extra load now required from it. Load balancing on a national power grid is a tricky thing. It has to be planned implicitly and implimentation can take a long time. Implementation cost is also a factor in how long it takes to have a well balanced grid in place.
