M-theory is one of the most ambitious frameworks in modern theoretical physics, aiming to unify the five consistent superstring theories with eleven-dimensional supergravity into a single non-perturbative structure. It emerged from the second superstring revolution, when dualities revealed that apparently distinct string models are related limits of one deeper theory. This article reviews the conceptual origin of M-theory, its higher-dimensional structure, brane content, duality web, compactification on Calabi-Yau and G2 manifolds, and its implications for cosmology, black holes, and quantum gravity.
