Fealty

“Fealty ” (FEE-ul-tee) – from the Latin for “to trust” – means fidelity, allegiance, faithfulness.

Example (as used in The New York Times): “[Andrew Johnson] was re-elected Governor in 1855, and his administration of the State affairs, both in that and the preceding term of office, was marked by a regard for the public interest rather than party fealty.”
