+	 * The std::unordered_map<std::type_index, std::vector<std::vector<std::unique_ptr<Component>>>> below might seem a bit strange, let me explain this structure:
+	 * The std::unordered_map<> has a key and value. The key is a std::type_index and the value is a std::vector. So, a new std::vector will be created for each new std::type_index.
+	 * The first std::vector<> stores another vector<>. This first vector<> is to bind the entity's id to a component.
+	 * The second std::vector<> stores unique_ptrs. Each component can be gathered via an unique_ptr. This second vector<> allows multiple components of the same std::type_index for one entity (id).
