What is the relationship between "World Datong" and Shanxi Datong?

The term "Da Tong" can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. "Zhuangzi Zaiyou": Praising the body and body, it is consistent with the great unity, and the great unity has no self. ? "Liezi Huangdi": ? Zixia said: ? According to what Shang heard from Master, those who are harmonious are the same as things, and those who have no harm to things can swim in gold and stone, swim in water and fire, all can be done. "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals": "Everything in the world is one person, and this is called Great Harmony." ?The meaning of the word "datong" in these three places is to be integrated with the heaven, earth and all things. It is the same reason as the harmonious development of human beings and nature and the simultaneous progress of society and science that we advocate today. In other words, Datong is the ultimate goal pursued by our ancestors to improve their lives and create an innovative world.

"Book of Rites? Liyun": "The journey of the great road is also about the world being public." Select the worthy and capable, be trustworthy and cultivate harmony. Old friends do not only care for their relatives, nor do they only care for their children. So that the old can have their end, the strong can be useful, the young can grow, and the lonely, weak and sick can all be provided for. Men have their share, and women have their home. If you hate it and throw it away on the ground, you don't have to hide it in yourself; if you hate it if it doesn't come from your body, you don't have to keep it for yourself. This is why people seek closure but do not prosper, and thieves and thieves do not commit crimes. Therefore, the door is open but not closed. It is called Datong. ?Datong here is an ideal society?
