The '''House de Bruce''' ([[Classical Latin|Latin]]: ''Domus Bricius''; [[Castadillaan Pelaxian|Pelaxian]]: ''Casa de Brux''; [[Brenadine Tainean|Reform Tainean]]: ''Kanai des Blous'') is the current {{wp|dynasty|ruling house}} of [[Castadilla]]. Initially an [[Urcea|Urcean]] noble house of [[Garán people|Garánic]], [[Gothic people#West Goths|West Gothic]], and [[Latinic people|Latinic]] origins, the de Bruces have played a significant role in the [[Catholic Church|Catholic]] opposition to and the eventual destruction of the [[Protestant Union]] during the [[Great Confessional War]] in [[Levantia]].

The current senior legitimate line of the house, known as the Great House of the XXX, has since the 20th Century been centred around both [[Alstin]] with the arrival of [[Patton de Bruce]] in 1932, and Castadilla with the election of [[Maximilian II of Castadilla|Marion de Bruce]] as [[Delepasian Emperor]] (now [[Casradillaan Emperor]]) in 1976. Asides from its [[Vallos|Vallosi]] titles, the de Bruces also hold three lesser titles in Levantia; two ducal, and one comital. | ||
The house was founded in [[Carolina]], a region in Levantia currently within Urcea, with the first head of the house being [[Robert de Bryce]], the youngest son of XXX, and would go on to become one of the more historically significant noble houses with the rise of [[Jacob de Brus]] during the Great Confessional War in the 16th Century. Throughout the 17th and 18th Centuries, the de Bruces would migrate and become a major noble family in [[Hendalarsk]], earning four noble titles under the Hendalarskian crown. It would not be until the extinguishing of the more senior XXX line in the late 18th Century that the de Bruces would return to Urcea where they remained throughout the entirety of the 19th Century. In 1932, Patton de Bruce, the heir to the then-Custóir of the XXX, had fled Urcea to escape an {{wp|arranged marriage}}. He would ultimately settle in Alstin where he subsequently married to [[Gladys Wilcox]], herself a scion of the prestigious [[Wilcox family]], and fathered seven children. The eldest of Patton's children, Marion, would go on to be elected as the Delepasian Emperor in 1976, with the subsequent title of Castadillaan Emperor remaining with the de Bruces ever since. | The house was founded in [[Carolina]], a region in Levantia currently within Urcea, with the first head of the house being [[Robert de Bryce]], the youngest son of XXX, and would go on to become one of the more historically significant noble houses with the rise of [[Jacob de Brus]] during the Great Confessional War in the 16th Century.
