A '''System''' is a conceptual mechanism that enables any enclosed space to enact a certain "truth" upon reality within itself through constant replenishment of faith from the people that reside within it. An alternative and simpler way of describing a System is a code of law that can overwrite reality within its area, but only as long as the majority of the people that reside within this space believe in it. | A '''System''' is a conceptual mechanism that enables any enclosed space to enact a certain "truth" upon reality within itself through constant replenishment of faith from the people that reside within it.

The definition for what an 'enclosed space' entails is treated very loosely. An enclosed space can be as logical as the walls created within an App Battle and a building, or can be as loose as the entire city of [[Tokyo]] inside the Walls or the inside of a person's body. | |||
While the term "System" is commonly used to describe the different societal mechanisms each [[World_(setting)|World]] has in order to function, it is a broad term used to describe any rules and mechanisms placed within an enclosed space. The term has been used to describe how [[the Walls]] of Tokyo prevent people from leaving, as well as to describe smaller instances such as the rules of a Virtual World. | While the term "System" is commonly used to describe the different societal mechanisms each [[World_(setting)|World]] has in order to function, it is a broad term used to describe any rules and mechanisms placed within an enclosed space.
