'''Treason''' is a legal concept referring to the betrayal of a state authority to which one owes allegiance. It especially refers to such betrayal as through making war on the state, giving aid to the enemies of the state, or attacking the head of state. Persons who [[Wikipedia:Defection|defect]] from one state to another may also be considered guilty of treason. [[Wikipedia:Sedition|Sedition]], the inciting of civil unrest or insurrection, is also frequently considered treasonous. Colloquially, treason is often used for any perceived act of disloyalty or betrayal. A person who commits treason is known as a traitor. | '''Treason''' is a legal concept referring to the betrayal of a state authority to which one owes allegiance.
