Fun Treason Facts:
Constitutionally, citizens of the United States owe allegiance to at least two sovereigns. One is the United States, and the other is their state.
They can therefore potentially commit treason against either, or against both.[4] At least fourteen people have been charged with treason against various states; at least six were convicted, five of whom were executed.
(((Only one person has ever been executed for treason against the federal government: William Bruce Mumford,))) who was convicted of treason and hanged in 1862 for tearing down a United States flag during the American Civil War.
