One of the reasons I love Half-Life is exploring, through animation, the aftermath of the Black Mesa Incident. How is it possible that nobody has created serious content about the reasons why humanity was defeated in only seven hours of war by the Combine? We're talking about billions of deaths, and this happened just 20 years ago. Countries would cease all economic exchanges with each other and focus instead on protecting the cities with the largest populations (New York, Paris, London, Moscow, Tokyo, Sydney, São Paulo, and Beijing)  by Portal Storm and the Wildlife from Xen.

Well, the combine force we see in the main game is just a single atom, maybe even less, of the true combine empire. They knew where to strike and used the portal storms to go exactly to the most important places (government buildings and military bases) before the army could respond, and likely used the advisors to suck out the presidents' knowledge. Besides, the army was already in a sticky situation as the portal storms had just started days prior to this whole ordeal. The scary part is you could've slept through it.
