Im building this hierarchy with Pages (See image)
EE Screenshot
But everytime I add a new item, it goes deep down in that list, I have 200+ pages to place in there, doesn’t it seem like this could get messy?
Is there a better way to do this?

How about using like tagging instead of hierarchy?

Not too sure about Pages, but I just finished working on a hierarchy like this with categories this morning. It took a little patience with conditionals and a couple of key add-ons - it largely amounted to converting the last segment into its category ID to filter the entries in the entries loop - which seems to mirror what you’re trying to do. It meant a single template for the filters and a single template for display, the way i did it. I suppose I could have done it with one template for all by throwing a few more conditionals at it.
URL hierarchy is a tough nut to crack in EE but it’s possible.
