Universal Property

A Universal Property defines an object uniquely by its characteristic relationship to all other objects of a certain type, often mediated by a special Morphism. It characterizes an object not by its internal structure, but by how it interacts universally with others, representing an "optimal" solution to a particular Problem. This elegant principle unifies many mathematical constructions.
