Kerajaan Merina (ca. 1540-1897) adalah negara pra-kolonial di tenggara Afrika yang mendominasi sebagian besar dari apa yang sekarang dikenal sebagai Madagaskar. Pusat kerajaan ini terletak di daerah Imerina, yaitu daerah dataran tinggi di tengah yang terutama dihuni oleh kelompok etnis Merina dan merupakan tempat berdirinya ibu kota Antananarivo dan mantan ibu kota spiritual di Ambohimanga.
