 	merkle patricia trees are modified merkletrees where nodes represent individual characters from hashes rather than each node representing an entire hash. This allows the state data structure itself to represent not only the intrinsically correct paths in the data, but also the requisite cryptographic proofs which go into making sure that a piece of data was valid in the first place. In other words, it keeps the blockchain valid by combining the structure of a standard merkletree with the structure of a Radix Tree. Since all searching and sorting algorithms in Ethereum must be filtered through this stringently correct database, accuracy of information is guaranteed. \par
