The Grand Duchy of Reykanes (Reykani: Stórhertogadæmið Reykjanes; Salisfordian: Granducato di Reicania) was a predecessor state of modern Reykanes. It existed between 1781 and 1800 as an independent state and then from 1801 to 1949 as an autonomous part of the Kingdom of Salisford.
Preceeded by the Reykani Commonwealth, the Grand Duchy was created in 1781 following the ousting of the usuper Ástþór Vífilsson by the estates of Reykanes and the invitation of the Salisfordian King Cesario VI. The Grand Duke of Reykanes was the King of Salisford, represented by the Governor-General. Originally acting as an independent state ruled by the Salisfordian monarch in personal union, it was officially integrated into Salisford as an autonomous region following the restoration of the Salisfordian monarchy and end of the Salisfordian Revolution in 1800.
Following waves of assimilation, the Grand Duchy's autonomy would grow over time.
