材料一：由于夏、商、西周朝代的共主与各诸侯国都是作为相对独立的国际政治行为体并列存在，使得该时期的大一统主要体现在土地、民心层面，而秦统一六国则最终实现了制度层面的天下大一统。在此过程中，尽管历次朝代更迭都会出现土地及民心层面的天下分裂，但伴随着民族文化的碰撞与融合，也使得土地范围从中原地区不断向四方扩展，民心也更加凝聚到对共主的认同上，并在最终经历过春秋战国的重重洗礼之后实现了制度层面上从统一礼仪向建立秦朝中央集权体制的飞跃。

材料二：1924年11月，孙中山在日本的演说《中国内乱之原因》中说：“说到和平统一，是我在数年前发起的主张。不过那些军阀都不赞成，所以总是不能实行这种主张。这次我到北方去，能够做成和平统一，也未可知。不过要以后真是和平统一，还是要军阀绝种；要军阀绝种，便要打破串通军阀来作恶的帝国主义。”……孙中山始终把武装斗争视为达到国家统一应采取的主要方式。为实现国家统一，孙中山一生都在不断与各派势力作斗争。在坚持武力统一的同时，孙中山从未放弃过和平统一的努力。
