I noticed a number of U.S. states have laws against "treason against the state of XXX", including it being a capital offense in some.

I have two questions:

- How do you define a treason against state?

Personally, I would go with the Constitutional definition of treason; levying war against the state, or "adhering to its enemies, giving them aid and comfort".
