What are the chances we are alone? The interesting question would be would it unite us as one world or would it split us in half and nations have a power grab to be ET’s best friend?

First thing that would probably happen is mathematicians and linguists would start crying (because they'd be extremely valuable in establishing communication). Second thing is probably that militaries would begin to strategize. Friendly or not doesn't matter: if something is immensely more advanced/powerful than us, then humans (being the innately cowardly/petty people we are) would start to try and figure out ways to fight or make sure that we're not screwed.
