Extensive Definition
Eventuality is a faculty from the discipline of
phrenology, which
rules the factual memory: the memory for facts and events. It
can also be referred to as the historical faculty, and it is
reflected in a desire to know and to be informed. The localization
is between individuality and comparison.
