Demetria Murata Marik (14 February 1881 – 20 March 1956) was a Cacertian Division General, and later General of Armed Forces, noted for her service leading ground forces during the Divide War and as commander of all Cacertian ground forces during the Siduri War.

She is best known for her contribution in pioneering motorized and armored warfare tactics for use in the Royal Army, utilizing the interwar period to learn about tank development in other armies. A strong advocate for using radio communication between tanks, Demetria developed effective tactics of which derivatives are still in use today.

Demetria continued to train armored warfare tactics at Anzio Women's Academy following the war and assisted in modernizing Cacerta’s armored divisions until retiring from the army in 1956.
