What do we mean by different fundamental forces having different relative strength? And if we already consider electromagnetic and weak interaction to be different manifestations of the same force, how are their relative strengths different?

hmm interesting, now there seems to be a similar thread
 

Thread 'Need help understanding particle physics and quantum physics'

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
