The Great Unity (Chinese: 大同; pinyin: dàtóng) is a Chinese vision of the world explicitly based on the past period of "three dynasties"[1] as understood by the Confucian tradition. In this ideal historical model, everyone and everything was at peace and this model must be restored. It is found in classical Chinese philosophy as a model based on the past but beginning with Kang Youwei (1858 – 1927) it was often combined with utopian ideas.[2]
