I find that peace, in our geopolitical conception, is simply war asleep, resting like a hibernating animal.
Lasting peace exists only in the case of a Mexican standoff between several states or alliances capable of annihilating the others, but at the risk of being destroyed themselves. It also exists in the case of countries or alliances with a form of mutual respect that is somewhat less dangerous than this Mexican standoff - it would be the Mexican standoff, but without the guns being drawn, where states rely more on diplomacy and reaffirming their relationships.
But it is a fragile peace.
So yes, I would prefer unity, but not in the sense of a single state, that is just as dangerous. Rather, I mean the abolition of the notion, the concept of state. This would indirectly imply the erasure of the concept of national or group culture to become, ironically, the freedom of individual culture, no more minority, but just humanity, all humanity, but it would have been a likely guarantee of universal peace.
Until someone restarts this cycle

Peace, first for personal reason, and also because of there were an unity, the life will be the war every day.

One of the keys is free trade.
If a commodity is in high supply at one place and in high demand at another place, then both places benefit from free trade of it.
Tariffs, boycots etc. hinder free trade and may lead to war.
If goods cannot cross the border, then soldiers will.
Wars were waged for commodities: copper, tin, oil, rare earth metals, cobalt, lithium...
The European Union is one free market and all countries benefited from it.
Brexit impoverished both the United Kingdom and the European Union.
The United Kingdom is more powerful than England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland apart.
The European Union is the largest economy of the world, larger than the United States and China.
However, the United States are more powerful, as they are one united country, while the European Union has independent member states that paralyze decisions.
The Soviet Union was powerful and internally at peace.
After the dissolution of the Soviet Union several wars broke out among the former Socialist Soviet Republics.
