    What do you mean about “/ root directory, eg /usr/bin/bash”? / is /, just the top-most directory

      I added more detail to the description and made a more relevant example. (I think)

      Yes, the top most directory, /, is the root directory.

      Each directory is a branch in one giant tree structure. For example, if you have a directory containing two other directories, that is a branch that is splitting into two branches. All directories are descendants of the same root.
