This is called IDOLATRY.
You might want to look up the definiton of the word "allegiance". I believe you have it confused with the word "worship". There's a BIG difference.
I understand the definition of the word "allegiance". Do you understand the definition of the word "idolatry"?
As stated, I would also like clarification of the phrase "and the republic for which it stands" among other vague and poorly defined terms.
Best regards,
