The house originated as a cadet branch of the [[Julian dynasty]]. Emerging victorious from the [[Saint's War]] and Great Interregnum in the 14th Century, the House de Weluta has ruled over Urcea with two notable interruptions since. Several of its members, beginning with [[Emperor Leo III of the Holy Levantine Empire|Emperor Leo III]], have reigned as [[Emperor of the Levantines]], and since the [[Second Great War]] that title has been permanently associated with the dynasty. | ||
Like all other Royal houses throughout the history of [[Urcea]], the House de Weluta is the "great house" of the Estate of the [[Julii (Estate)|Julii]] within the [[Estates of Urcea]]. [[King Riordan VIII]] is the head of the House de Weluta and Custóir of the Julii Estate. The main line of the House is sometimes distinguished from the rest of the House by being referred to as the "''Carolines''", or even more rarely, the "''House of Caroline''", based on the agnomen adopted under the [[Tria nomina movement|tria nomina system]], ''Carolinicus''. | Like all other Royal houses throughout the history of [[Urcea]], the House de Weluta is the "great house" of the Estate of the [[Julii (Estate)|Julii]] within the [[Estates of Urcea]].

For the most part, these crowns were new realms held in personal union with the [[Apostolic King of Urcea]], such as the late 18th century creation of [[Lariana]] or early 21st century creation of [[New Harren]]. There are some prominent exceptions to this general rule. In [[1824]], Corio de Weluta was crowned King Arathvesur I of [[Paulastra]], bringing the still-reigning [[Julian dynasty]] to that country. The direct de Weluta line ruling Paulastra ended in [[1890]]. | ||

The long relationship between House de Weluta and the Empire is reflected on the family's arms, which include the large Imperial Eagle as the primary part of the arms and the smaller house arms in {{wp|Escutcheon (heraldry)|escutcheon}}. The Imperial Eagle also appears in the smaller shield from the period of the 18th century Imperial reign. | The long relationship between House de Weluta and the Empire is reflected on the family's arms, which include the large Imperial Eagle as the primary part of the arms and the smaller house arms in {{wp|Escutcheon (heraldry)|escutcheon}}.

These territories were reorganized as the Kingdom of [[Lariana]], with Lucás III becoming King Lucás I of Lariana in that year. The Kingdom is still held in personal union with the [[Apostolic King of Urcea]]. Accordingly, it follows the same line of succession as Urcea. | ||
