Doesn the Electoral College contribute to the unity of the country by requiring a distribution of popular support to be elected president?

No. The Electoral College actually undermines the cohesiveness of the country by creating the possibility of minority rule over the majority and by creating a system of safe states and swing states. A system which encourages the presidential campaigns to ignore two-thirds of the country is hardly one which contributes to our country’s unity.
