Allegiance is to loyalty as treason is to what?

In this analogy, "allegiance" denotes a strong commitment or loyalty to a person, group, or cause. In contrast, "treason" signifies a betrayal of that loyalty, particularly against one's country or sovereign. Therefore, to find a word that reflects a similar relationship to "treason," one should look for a term that signifies an act against established loyalty or allegiance.

"Rebellion" fits this description well, as it denotes an act of violent or open resistance to an established government or authority, which is a direct contradiction of loyalty. In the context of the analogy, allegiance correlates with loyalty, and treason correlates with rebellion, as both represent opposing actions to the initial terms.

The other choices do not appropriately capture the opposing nature sought in this analogy. "War," while indirectly related, does not encapsulate the personal betrayal aspect of treason in the same way rebellion does. "Obedience" represents compliance, not a betrayal, and "disconnect" doesn't convey the active opposition implied by treason. Thus, the relationship between allegiance and loyalty parallels that of treason and rebellion accurately.
