Castria, known formally as the Kingdom of Castria, is a sovereign state in southwestern Belisaria.

The lands today known as Castria were settled by peoples of the Castro culture in the second half of the first millennium BCE. The later Castro culture saw interactions with the ancient Tyrian civilization, which founded several trading posts along the Periclean shoreline. The cultural impact of the Tyrians was brief, yet important, as several of these settlements eventually grew into major Castrian port cities. The whole region came under the control of the Latin Empire during the 3rd century BCE. Serving as the fringe of the Latin Empire's Belisarian holdings for centuries, Castria found itself in the early Middle Ages at the crossroads between Latium and the forces that would form the Holy Audonian Empire. Eventually, the counties and duchies of Castria broke away and pledged allegiance to the Audonian emperor in 10XX following Garza's departure. The territory then gained intense cultural influence from these two forces: Audonian culture from the north heavily influenced Castria, creating the direct antecedent of modern Castrian culture; increased Latin and Garzan influence in the south and west saw the formation of the coastal Baronese culture.

Etymology

Castria derives its name from the Roman word castrum, referring to a military fort. The Castro culture had built numerous fortified settlements across the country by the time of Latin arrival, leading to the Latin christening of the region as "x," the land of the fortresses.
