Recent structure refinement of five additional members has permitted extraction of a number of generalizations concerning their crystallization behavior. These general principles are outlined. Furthermore, based on the fluorite structure itself, a phenomenological structural principle is outlined that (1) unifies all known and possible phases in these fluorite‐related systems under one generic formula, (2) models all known structures correctly and (3) enables modeling of any unknown structure or polymorph in the series. All that is required are electron diffraction patterns adequate to determine the supercell and a knowledge of its composition. %Z https://katalog.bibliothek.tu-chemnitz.de/Record/ai-49-aHR0cDovL2R4LmRvaS5vcmcvMTAuMTAwMi96YWFjLjE5OTY2MjIwMzE0 %U https://katalog.bibliothek.tu-chemnitz.de/Record/ai-49-aHR0cDovL2R4LmRvaS5vcmcvMTAuMTAwMi96YWFjLjE5OTY2MjIwMzE0
