 * "Treason, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder".
 * - Elim Garak

Treason was the act of betraying one's country, organization, affiliation, or ally, usually to assist the enemy. One who commited this act was known as a traitor, and might be convicted as a criminal. Sometimes, a traitor was influenced by the enemy to commit such acts due to political or situational circumstances.

Treason was one of the very few crimes punishable by death on Vulcan in the 22nd century. 

Various Starfleet-related acts of treason and traitors have been uncovered throughout history.

Jack, Lauren, Patrick and Sarina almost committed treason in 2374, by trying to give Weyoun and Damar Starfleet battle plans and fleet deployments. 

The Female Changeling was determined that Damar "pay a price" for his treason against the Dominion. She ordered Weyoun to find Damar's wife and children. 

General Martok considered it treasonous to challenge Chancellor Gowron's leadership of the Klingon Empire in the middle of the Dominion War. 

Captain Braxton accused Captain Kathryn Janeway and Commander Chakotay of being traitors after they denied his story of being from the future to police officer Sims.

Other traitors

 * The Romulan admiral Alidar Jarok was lured into committing treason against the Romulan Star Empire in hopes of making a better life for his people.

 * Elim Garak had wanted to invent charges of treason against Legate Porania when he was in the Obsidian Order, so he wouldn't have to "hear his voice again".
 * Admiral Leyton was prepared to commit treason in order to save Earth from the Dominion. Benjamin Sisko believed that Leyton didn't see his actions as treasonable, but as desperate acts of patriotism.
 * Senator Kimara Cretak was found guilty of treason against the Romulan Star Empire by the Continuing Committee in 2375, for illegally accessing Chairman Koval's personal Tal Shiar database. She was actually trying to save Koval's life, as she had been told by Julian Bashir that Koval was about to be assassinated by Section 31. In actuality, having Cretak accused of being a traitor was the plan all along, as it was likely she would be ejected from the Romulan Senate and Koval would take her place on the Continuing Committee.
