That of?
Now I’m going to get weird on you. If we understand that the psychic and real importance of the state is that of the hero or the martyr, a figure who fights or sacrifices to put a check on the essential darkness of the world and human nature
Does that of mean "the state" or "the psychic" ? I think it is the former.

- "that" is the pronomialization of "the importance", or more explicitly, "the psychic and real importance"and "of" just means "of" the psychic and real importance of the state is that of the hero or the martyr ~ the psychic and real importance of the state is the psychic and real importance of the hero or the martyr __________________ The sentence is incomplete, by the way.
