Treason involves betraying one's country, specifically by levying war against it or aiding its enemies, and is typically a federal crime. Sedition, on the other hand, refers to actions or speech that incite rebellion against the authority of the state but do not necessarily involve direct betrayal or aid to enemies. While both offenses threaten governmental authority, treason is more severe and specifically defined in constitutional law, whereas sedition can encompass a broader range of dissent against the government.

Aiding a nation's declared enemy (especially during wartime), rebellion, insurrection, advocating overthrow of a [legal] government, and misprision of treason (e.g., failure to report treason) are typical examples of acts of treason.
