The Kingdom of Seville (which in Spanish is Reino de Sevilla) was a special area that belonged to the Crown of Castile. It existed from 1248 until 1833. Think of it like a region or territory within a larger country.
The Crown of Castile was a powerful kingdom in what is now Spain. It was made up of several smaller "kingdoms" like Seville. The Kingdom of Seville was one of the important areas known as the Four Kingdoms of Andalusia.
Its exact borders were written down in a big survey called Respuestas Generales del Catastro de Ensenada between 1750 and 1754. Today, most of this area is part of the region of Andalucia. It included land that is now in the provinces of Huelva, Seville, and Cádiz. It also included parts of the Antequera Depression in Málaga province and some towns in Extremadura, specifically in the province of Badajoz.
The Kingdom of Seville, along with other similar kingdoms in Spain, was officially ended in 1833. This happened during a big change when Spain was divided into new provinces.
