Tierra Comunera (English: Commoners' Land, TC) is a Castilian nationalist political party in the Spanish historical region of Castile.

It considers itself a left-of-centre, social democratic and environmentalist party. It is contesting the 2021 Madrilenian regional election allied with Zero Cuts, Castilian Party and The Greens–Green Group. It also contested the 2019 Madrilenian regional election allied with the Castilian Party. In 2019, they finished 13th with 0.06% of the vote.

Castile and León is an autonomous community in northwestern Spain. Castile and León is the largest autonomous community in Spain by area, covering 94,222 km2. It is, however, sparsely populated, with a population density below 30/km2. While a capital has not been explicitly declared, the seats of the executive and legislative powers are set in Valladolid by law, and for all purposes that city serves as the de facto regional capital.
The Castilian Left is a leftist nationalist political movement active in the Spanish autonomous communities of Castile-La Mancha, Castile and Leon and Community of Madrid. It strives to advocate for the national recognition of Castile, and in some cases, its independence. Other current political parties include Tierra Comunera, Castilian Party, and Ahora Castilla.
Both the perceived nationhood of Spain, and the perceived distinctions between different parts of its territory derive from historical, geographical, linguistic, economic, political, ethnic and social factors.
