1. The Continent (and self-similarity).

2. The Filaments and dwell bands.

3. The Island mu-molecules.

4. Filament Symmetry including self-similarity and two types of rotational symmetry (related to mu-atom Periods and bifurcation).

and then, at roughly the same time:

5a. Nested Filament Symmetries
5b. The unique attributes of Cusp filaments

Then one reaches a bit of a lull. To most observers, these properties seem to account for everything in the structure of the Mandelbrot Set. In fact, most people will stop here, and some technically-minded enthusiasts have devised Naming Systems based on these features alone (plus possibly the External Arguments).

Persistent explorers and those with a more mathematical background will also discover:

- The External Arguments.

- The Embedded Julia Sets.

- The Second-Order Embedded Julia Sets.
