"El agente unificador más universal y efectivo de las sociedades humanas complejas son las creencias compartidas."
— Yuval Noah Harari
Simplified Meaning:
People in large, diverse groups can come together and cooperate because they have common beliefs. For instance, in a country like the United States, people from very different backgrounds work together because they believe in things like freedom and democracy. These shared ideas help hold the society together even when people might disagree on other things. Just like how a sports team unites under the goal of winning, countries and communities unite under common beliefs. Believing in the same principles gives people a sense of unity and purpose. If you want to build a strong group, find and focus on the values everyone agrees on.
