A quick definition of perduellio:

Term: perduellio

Definition: Perduellio is a Latin word that means "treason." In ancient Rome, it referred to the crime of being disloyal to one's own country. This could include things like joining the enemy or running away from battle. It was considered a very serious crime, similar to what we call "high treason" today. Some examples of perduellio included trying to overthrow the government or helping outside enemies. Later on, this crime was grouped together with other crimes against the state and called crimen laesae majestatis.

A more thorough explanation:

Perduellio is a crime in Roman law that means treason. It refers to any act of hostility towards one's own country, such as joining the enemy or deserting the battlefield. This is similar to the English phrase "high treason".

Examples of perduellio include assuming regal power, trying to overthrow the government through violence, and helping external enemies. These acts are considered serious crimes against the state.

For example, if a soldier deserts the battlefield and joins the enemy, they could be charged with perduellio. This is because they have committed an act of treason against their own country by helping the enemy.
