Government of the Autonomous Community of Castile and Leon


Explanation:
The above is what I would say. Castile and Leon is an autonomous community.

Personally, I would not add the accent to Leon, but it's a minor detail.

Yes, I would use capitals (as above) for this and I would translate Castiila y Leon (as I have done above).
