Barcia (Idrean/Ludovite: /ba:rkiə/), officially the Kingdom of Barcia (Idrean:Regno di Barcia; Ludovite: Reino de Barcia), is an unitary parliamentary constitutional monarchy located in eastern Occidental Auressia. Barcia is located on the eastern coast of Auressia along the Galene Sea and is bordered by Fortaine, Palia and Sabaria to the west. The country has a land area of ???km² (??? sq mi) and a population of 35 million making it the Xth largest nation in Auressia by population. Barcia's capital and largest city is Tradare located within the north-east of the country along the river Milon.

Barcia's origins can be traced back to the Sabarine Empire which came to dominate the region of Barcia during the 3rd century BCE. Barcia would become a strategically important region from the empire providing significant resources and manpower which would allow further conquests across Auressia. Over time the region would become thoroughly Sabarinised and considered part of the imperial heartland. With the decline of the empire however, Barcia came under attack from Isaric tribes, leading to the conquest of much of Barcia's northern coast by the Ludovites in the Tenth Century CE. Over time the Ludovites would solidify their hold on the region and increasing their influence within the empire and at time threatening the power and influence of the neighbouring Grand Duchy of Orlesso. Following the Fourth War of the Eagles in 1422, Barcia would become one of the most powerful states within the reformed empire along with Palia, gaining significant influence over Imperial elections, with the ruling ??? dynasty claiming the title of Emperor on a number of occasions. During the Sixteenth century Barcia also benefitted from its expanding global trade network, which would see the import of spices and silks from Eastern territories such as Nabiya and Songha. With the onset of the Great War Barcia would side with its allies in the Coalition, dividing the empire to the benefit of the Kingdom territorially, however the Second Great War would see the Kingdom undergo a period of political instability resulting in revolution and a war of resistance against the Lanzist Empire. During the modern era Barcia continues to play a major role in the Occidental Confederation and across the globe as a key economic and political actor.
