In 405 AR after the first conquest of REGION, Lamrith Caisatra who led nefadric troops as a Comandant was granted the noble title of Count together with a generous parcel of land within the freshly annexed territory, because of his military merit.

The Great House rules over the Kingdom of Caisatra and also holds many titles within it as minior titles are divided among brothers upon inheritance as per tradition. Due to thier standing as greater nobility, the Caisatras enjoy a relative autonomy, when considered they are part of the Nefadric Empire.
Religion
Nearly all members of the Caisatrian House are dedicated to Xubris Might of the Jubixian Faith as one might expect from a nefadric Great House with nearly one and a half centuries of military service and martial tradition. Generally the Caisatrians are very faithful and allways have been, Caisatras can been found in royal records of divine knightly orders or ancient archives of holy martial monestaries.

A nice article, but what made it hard to understand at times for me were some spelling errors. I'm not a native english speaker, so this sentence was very confusing to me:
Im guessing thier is a typo and the of a remnant of some older version, but at first I thought it was an english word that I didn't know x) Other than that, it is a good teaser. I would love to hear more about what makes them powerful. You wrote that their economic standing is pinnacle, so I would love to know how they make their money (that is something I'm wondering for my own nobility, so I'm always curious to see how other worldbuilders do that). The bond with House Dordove is also something I would like to see more of. You mentioned the founder married someone from House Dordove, but this sounded like far in the past (a timeline attached to the article could help clear that up as well!), and I'm curious as to how this developed. Keep on doing the good work!
