Alania adalah sebuah kerajaan suku Alan (Proto-Ossetia)[5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] yang berdiri pada Abad Pertengahan di kawasan Kaukasus Utara (kurang lebih di wilayah Sirkasia dan Osetia Utara-Alania pada masa modern). Kerajaan ini dibentuk setelah berhasil memisahkan diri dari Kekhaganan Khazar pada akhir abad ke-9. Ibu kota kerajaan ini terletak di Maghas. Kerajaan ini mengendalikan jalur dagang yang melewati Celah Darial.
Kerajaan Alania mencapai puncak kejayaannya pada abad ke-11 di bawah kepemimpinan Raja Dorgolel.[13] Namun, kerajaan ini hancur akibat serangan Mongol pada tahun 1238–39.

Ossetes are of mixed Iranian-Caucasian origin; their language belongs to the Iranian group of the Indo-European family of languages. From the 7th century bce to the 1st century ce Ossetia came under Scythian-Sarmatian influence, which was succeeded by that of the warlike Alani, who are believed to be the direct ancestors of the present-day Ossetes.
