Unity?

How do we define unity? or maybe, In which ways does unity define us as people? and Where, when and how do we see and show this unity?
A fantastic example of unity is seen in both of the World Wars, and specifically in the United Kingdom. In the face of the Nazis invading the country, the U.K. rallied together and stood strong as a nation. This is evident when I have spoken to people who experienced these events they spoke of how it seemed that everyone was almost family, it was clear to see that everyone was fighting for the same cause. So this example of unity shows how people join together for a mutual cause. But where do we see this nation-wide unity now? The simple answer is that we don't. Unity has either taken a different meaning or it is gone. I think we see different aspects of unity, but we don't see it fully embodied in our nation. However, when the United Kingdom unified they won. I think we ought to take this as an example that we will accomplish more by unifying. Unity is essential, we need to have the same goals (economically/politically) and unify to make them happen.We have to give 'unity' the meaning it deserves. If we want to see ourselves excel as a nation and get out of the mess we are in we need to do a little bit of soul-searching. We ought to delve deeper into what really makes up our nation, what values are compromised and what sacrifices we make. It is essential to bring back the good in the character of the nation. We need to strive for purpose and value. We need a different emphasis. We need unity, but how?
