List of political parties in Ostry
Ostry has a multi-party system, with numerous parties and the inability for a single party to gain a majority, necessitating the formation of coalition governments.
Unlike many other states, Ostric politics is divided on the question of sovereignty and independence from Werania, with the left-wing Ostric People's Party and right-wing Ostric Coalition in favour and the centre-left Social Democratic Radical Party, conservative National Consolidation Party and liberal Modern Centre Party, all local branches of Werania-wide parties, against. Within this also exists various attitudes towards the "Ostric question", from support of a referendum to increased autonomy to a unilateral declaration of independence.
Political parties represented at a regional and national level
There are currently eight parties represented in the Dorada, four endorsing unionist sentiments, two endorsing separatist views, and two with no official stance on the issue. While coalitions tend to be made within this dichotomy, exceptions have occurred.
