The Western Kingdom of the Levantines (Latin: Regnum Levantorum Occidentalis) or the Western Levantine Kingdom was a successor state of Conchobar's Levantine Empire, created by the division of the Empire among the three sons of Emperor Brian III in 917. The western kingdom was given to Brian III's son Aemon. It was ruled by King Aemon until his death in 947 and would then be inherited by his son Lorcan. King Lorcan would rule the kingdom until 978 when the now greatly diminished kingdom was dissolved after Lorcan was captured during a rebellion by the kingdom's Carnish and Gaelic vassal lords.

17 years later in 995, Duncan, petty king of Dunaird, succeeded in uniting the numerous Carnish lords under his rule. With the Carnish lords once again united under a single ruler, Duncan founded the Kingdom of Carna becoming its first king and beginning more than a millennia of independent Carnish rule.
