martyrdom

WIthout looking in a dictionary,
.....a martyr is someone who is willing (and often DOES) give up his/her life for what he/she believes.
The kamikaze pilots who flew suicide missions for the Japanese during World War II could probably be considered martyrs of a sort, as they gave up their lives for their political beliefs.
Martyrdom is the action.
Sometimes someone is martyred for "everyone". Jesus comes to mind....
