    The set of conditional systems is the closure of the set of families of conditional probabilities derived from the probability distributions with full support on a given finite set. It is shown that the set of conditional systems is homeomorphic to the unit ball in Euclidean space of one dimension lower than the cardinality of the fixed finite set.
