	Loyalty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The rise of states (and later nation states) meant the harnessing of the "loyalty" concept to foster allegiance to the sovereign or established government of one’s country, also personal devotion and reverence to the sovereign and royal family.
		Loyalty is also used in context to employee satisfaction with their organization, and their propensity to exit or stay with the organization.
		The English word "loyalty" came into use in the early part of the 15th century in the sense of fidelity to one’s oath, or in service, love, etc; the later state-oriented sense appears in the 16th century.

	Shakespeare Magazine ~ Studying Varying Loyalties in Julius Caesar
		Along the left-hand side, which I label "Degree of Loyalty," the criterion is the degree to which characters act out of a motivation to help others.
		"Loyalty to Self"; at the top of the continuum is "Loyalty to Others." Time is the element I use across the bottom of the graph, so that the left-hand end of the line is labeled "Act I" and the right-hand end of the line represents the end of the play.
		The finished graph line begins with a dot at the top of the loyalty scale in act one, a sharp downward drop near the funeral oration (wherever the class determines that the change occurs), a dot at the bottom of the loyalty scale by 4.1 and no change after that.
