<h1>Explaining Amnesty: A Government's Act of Forgiving Past Political Crimes Like Treason or Rebellion via General Pardon.</h1> Amnesty, as defined in Black's Law Dictionary, 4th Edition, refers to a sovereign act of forgetting past offenses, typically granted by a government to individuals guilty of crimes, often political in nature such as treason, sedition, or rebellion. It is a general pardon that may require recipients to return to obedience within a set time. While it often applies to specific groups awaiting trial, it is not limited to them. Amnesty can also be declared by new sovereign powers to pardon those who supported or obeyed a previous government that has been overthrown.
