ARE - Amministrazione Radiotelevisiva Etruriana (Etrurian Radio Television Administration) is the national public broadcasting company of Etruria and is headquartered in Solaria. Established in 1920 as the Servizio Informazioni Etruriano (Etrurian Information Service), it is one of the oldest broadcasters in the world. It is owned by the Government of Etruria and is managed by the Federal Ministry for Culture and National Identity.

From its foundation until 1938 when television was introduced, ARE (formerly SIE) providing broadcasts of news, public information as well as music and theatrical productions over radio. From 1938 onward, it became the sole provider of televised productions until 1953 when ReppublicaTV (then known as Radioteleivisione Reppublica; RAR) was founded, this was followed by UNIcanale in 1958. During the Etrurian military junta (1960-1984), only ARE was permitted to broadcast information and news, with RAR and UNIcanale's news services shut down. Following the restoration of democracy, ARE's competitors were permitted to resume broadcasting news services. Under the military regime, ARE also became the pre-eminent producer of entertainment shows, sports news and events as well as documentaries and since has remained the most watched broadcaster in Etruria. In 1991, Orrizonte24 was launched, introducing a third privately owned competitor.

Today, ARE provides television, radio, online and printed services and productions for both domestic and international audiences. In 2017, ARE launched a subsidiary Unimondo for the Etrurian diaspora and Vespasian speaking countries in Asteria Inferior, Asteria Superior and the Arucian Sea. It is funded via a hybrid system of government funds, advertising, sponsorship and federal taxation (Tassa sui Servizi Pubblici; Public Services Tax). In 2021, it operated a budget of €1.101 billion and employed over 4,000 people. It's primary rival for market share is ReppublicaTV, yet remains the most watched broadcaster with an estimated 53% audience share weekly. ARE was one of the founding members of the Euclean Broadcasters Group in 1951.
