Heres a thorny one, what is "loyalty"?

Question:

Heres a thorny one, what is "loyalty"?

I don't want text book definitions, I can get that in a dictionary! Anyone have a legitimate arguement as to what exactly "loyalty" is? Does it even exist or is it something we made up ourselves? Please discuss

no no no we KNOW what loyalty is, what we want to find out is the principal of it. i like the idea that loyalty to the CONNECTION we have with someone, and will stand by them in bad forces attack them. anyone have something to add to this?
