Can electrical wires break?
So what actually happened was that one of the main fuses tripped in the main electricity line. When I got a hold of an electrician via phone, their recommendation was to check those, along with a description of what they actually were and looked like.
Also an important thing I wanted to share that I hadn't seen here that those main breakers can often be replaced with different/wrong fuses, which can be a fire hazard. So I made sure to replace them with the same specs.
