North Ottonia, officially the Ottonian Federal Republic, is a nation on the northwestern edge of the continent of Belisaria. It is bordered to the south by South Ottonia, Sudmark, and Orcot, to the east by Erishland and Skaldafen, and is neighbored across the North Thalassian Ocean by Ghant. The country was formed as a result of the Ottonian Civil War, arising in the zone controlled by the Republican government of the Ottonian Federation when the Partitioning of Ottonia took effect in 1922. In 1947, the existing Federal government was dissolved and the current government system was established in the New Foundation.
North Ottonia is a federalized democratic presidential republic, with some technocratic elements. Economically, North Ottonia adheres to a model of market socialism, which utilizes a mix of public and state ownership of enterprises alongside employee-owned and cooperatively-owned enterprises within a market system used to allocate goods and services. Although classification varies among political scientists throughout the world, those within the OFR typically categorize it as a democratic socialist state.

North Ottonia's history as a distinct nation begins in 1915 with the outbreak of the Ottonian Civil War.
