Unimatrix

A unimatrix, plural unimatrices and unimatrixes was an organizational structure within the Borg Collective.

Unimatrix was also a type of shielding technology used by Starfleet. 

Structure
The unimatrix subdivsion included regions of space, specific cohorts of Borg drones, and space stations known as unicomplex. The drone cohort would be subdivided further into a trimatrix. 

The spatial unimatrices could be broken down into grids. The area inside a grid could be specified as octants. The Borg would also use the designation Matrix for regions of space. 

History
In 2375, Lieutenant Commander Tuvok of the Federation starship USS Voyager designed unimatrix shielding used in the ship's multispatial probe and the first heavy shuttle. 

In 2376, a group of drones who regained their individuality temporarily while regenerating formed a insurrectionist group known as Unimatrix Zero. Thanks to the assistance they received from Voyager, the Borg were plunged into a brief civil war. 

In 2409, Unimatrix 0047 was tasked by the Collective with the subjugation of local space in the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. Its fleets were led by command ships. 

In the same year, Unimatrix 0047 suborned two of its command ships to Unimatrix 8472, located in fluidic space.
