coincide

This term describes a state of alignment, whether in time, space, or thought. When referring to events, it suggests a simultaneous occurrence that may be accidental or planned, often creating a sense of synchronicity. In a conceptual or geometric sense, it implies a perfect overlap where two distinct entities become indistinguishable in their position or value. It is more precise than simply saying things are similar, as it denotes an exact match or a shared point of intersection.
