大: Big
勢: Power
Together they mean: lots of people,
but individually: Big and Power.
Interestingly, after asking around, when people see these two kanji together, their mind doesn't immediately think "Big Power." Its interesting that kanji has evolved from individual character meanings to an almost alphabet, where people do not think of their individual meanings in order to determine the what they may mean when coupled together.
I actually find the word dissection to be a interesting way to learn new vocabulary, but more on this later.
