===Sports===
Larianic culture enjoys many of the same sports as [[Culture of Urcea|Urcean culture]] due to its long participation in the Urcean cultural sphere. Accordingly, {{Wp|baseball}}, {{wp|gridiron football}}, and [[Horse racing in Levantia|horse racing]] are extremely popular. Most people in Lariana root for professional teams or athletes in these sports in Urcea's professional leagues, such as the [[Continental Baseball Conference]], and Lariana does not host any teams in these leagues. Smaller semi-professional leagues of baseball and football do exist in Lariana but only receive local popularity. In horse racing, Lariana does host several major track meets per year, and it is often viewed with a higher level of prestige and affinity in Lariana than the other sports due to the country's ability to participate. In baseball, the ten-team minor league of the [[Tarrin]] Thunder - the Lariana National League - is based entirely in Lariana, and is the most popular in-Kingdom spectator sport league beyond horse racing.
Some Sarpedonic sports also enjoy popularity as a second-tier of professional sports in popular culture.
