2022–23 Lega della Reppublica

The Lega della Reppublica is the highest level of Etrurian professional football for men's association football clubs. It is contested by 18 clubs in system of promotions and relegations within the Etrurian football league system. Seasons run from August to May, and each team plays a total of 36 games, facing each other team twice—once at home and once away. Most games are played on Saturdays and Sundays, with occasional fixtures on weekday evenings.

Established in 1899, the Lega della Reppubblia is the longest continuously running national league in Euclea and has been organised by the Lega Alta Etruria from 1899 to 1949, Lega Federale Professionisti from 1949 to 1996, before falling under the current administration of the Lega Superiore. The League della Reppublica is regarded as one of most premier footballing leagues in the world and is often depicted as one of the most tactical and defensively sound leagues. The Lega della Reppublica was world's second strongest national league in 2022, behind the Gaullican Super Ligue, its persitent rival. It has persistently ranked within the top 5 leagues globally, its competing teams have also recorded strong perfomances in Euclean competitions.

The format utilised by the Lega della Reppublica today was revised from a regional and interregional round system to a single-tier league from the 1930-31 season onward. The titles won from 1899 to 1930 are officially recognised by FEGC with the same weighting as titles subsequently awarded. This has maintained the current table of most successful teams domestically.

The leagues hosts several of the most world's most famous clubs, including S.S. Tyrennia, S.S. Schiuntrave, San Marco-Povelia, Dinamo Dubovica, Cittadella Faulia and Virtus Carcoforo.

S.S. Tyrennia, Etruria's most successful club of the 20th century and the most winning Etrurian team, is ranked within the top five for most official international titles with twelve. San Marco-Povelia Etruria's second best team, with eleven international titles. Dinamo Dubovica is third with eight international titles. All three are renowned for having competed internationally uninterrupted for since 1990. All these clubs, along with Virtus Caracoforo, U.S. Solaria, Accadia Industria, Cittadella Faulia and A.S, Traffiume, are known as the "Grand Eight" (Otto grande) of Etrurian football.
