'''Metaphysics''' is a branch of [[philosophy]] exploring the fundamental questions, including the nature of concepts like [[being]], [[existence]], and [[reality]]. It has two branches – [[cosmology]] and [[ontology]]. Traditional metaphysics seeks to answer, in a "suitably abstract and fully general manner", the questions:
# What ''is there''?
# And what is it ''like?''
Topics of metaphysical investigation include [[existence]], [[Object (philosophy)|objects]] and their [[Property (philosophy)|properties]], [[space]] and [[time]], [[Causality|cause and effect]], and [[Logical possibility|possibility]]. A central branch of metaphysics is [[ontology]], the investigation into the basic [[category of being|categories of being]] and how they relate to one another.
