What is a fundamental?

A fundamental is a core principle

I believe its important to establish the most important principles behind a topic. This can be difficult because principles can overlap and have complex interrelations. Although a topic may appear inherently complicated, I believe there are usually a few underlying fundamentals that govern the whole system. Similar to untying a knot, fundamentals can be unearthed and organized into clear structures.
