System contracts, system accounts, privileged accounts

At the genesis of an Antelope-based blockchain, there is only one account present, eosio account, which is the main system account. There are other system accounts, created by eosio account, which control specific actions of the system contracts mentioned in previous section. Note the terms system contract and system account. Privileged accounts are accounts which can execute a transaction while skipping the standard authorization check. To ensure that this is not a security hole, the permission authority over these accounts is granted to eosio.prods system account.

As you just learned the relation between a system account and a system contract, it is also important to remember that not all system accounts contain a system contract, but each system account has important roles in the blockchain functionality, as follows:
