check to make sure your battery cables are still connected first. (kinda obvious, but needs to be checked.)

Next check to see if you blew any fuses.

After that, I would start following wires from the battery and working your way back.

Did all the electrical go dead, or just parts of it? This would help narrow down your search area.
