The emperor Caracalla extended Roman citizens to all the freeborn in the Roman Empire. However, he did not do so to strengthen unity. He did it to bring all the inhabitants of the empire under Roman taxation so that he could increase state revenues. Prior to that it was routine policy to grant Roman citizenship to elite men in the provinces who were loyal to Rome to strengthen unity. It was not down to one particular man.
