[MadMax] What happened to the world?

In Road Warrior you definitely can tell a cataclysm happened, and I know or assume from nuclear war, as so with Thunderdome. But the first Madmax didn't really feel all that apocalyptic, save for the gang of raiders.

So what events transpired from Madmax to Roadwarrior?

The cataclysm was more of a descent then the result of a single event. Max started off enforcing the law in one of the stable areas, but it was obvious that they were beginning to break down. He then left the stable areas to live in the wasteland. As time went on the last groups of humans gathered around areas with resources and any sign of former civilization was lost.
