unifies
Makes into one
Unifies means brings together into a single whole.
A leader unifies factions, a theory unifies observations, a common enemy unifies rivals.
The new constitution unified the thirteen colonies into one nation.
What unifies often creates coherence from scattered parts—turning many into one.
