Inner Sphere House Unit Organization
Despite differences in politics, culture, and religious beliefs, the Inner Sphere's root TO&E base is drawn from the same basic unit structure. Though each separate House differs from each other in almost every aspect, each house originally based their structure of military forces based on the first Star League's own unit organization.
