Morphology

unity = unite (transparent) = un + ity

The noun 'unity' is transparently derived from the verb 'unite' with the suffix '-ity' denoting a state or condition.

Etymology

Unity comes from the Latin unus meaning 'one', and the prefix uni- is the same part you see in unit and unite, so unity is the idea of people or parts being 'as one' or joined together.
