Providência, officially the Commonwealth of Providência (Cartadanian: Comunidade de Providência; Charentais: Communauté de Providence) is an insular territory of Cartadania, located in the southern Odoneru Ocean. It has a population of 221,317, making it the least populous territory as well as least populous first-level division of Cartadania. Despite this, due to having an area of approximately 362.6 square kilometres (140.0 sq mi), Providência is also the second-most densely populated first-level division of Cartadania as well, with 610.4 inhabitants per square kilometre (1,581 inhabitants per square mile).

A territory of first class, Providência was the first division to enter the union as a territory and not as a state, joining 1684, earlier than the creation of Alahuela itself. Though originally used as a military installation, the island is primarily a tourist destination today. Inhabited by northern Caphiric people since 370BC, and prior to that by Adonerii, Providência was annexed by Cartadanian navigators much later in the mid-to-late 17th century and claimed for the Republic, although some historians speculate much earlier annexation circa the Verona Vermillion Acts in the 15th century.
