The Ostric Coalition (Ostric: Koalicëjô Òstrskô; Navish: Ostrøysk Koalisjon) is a right-wing Ostric nationalist party in Ostry, a national territory of Navack. Founded as the Freedom Party by Jérzy Hagen in 2002 after his independent 1999 bid for Regional Administrator, the party reached its peak in the mid-2000s, electing Hagen as Regional Administrator in 2007. Since then, the organization has declined to third-party status, but still remains an important group in the Ostric independence movement.

Prior to 2018, the party's ideological stance was often less precise then other political groupings on the island, although throughout its existence it has espoused separatist and nationalist views, often more radical then the Ostric People's Party, while maintaining a populist rhetoric and platform. Outside of these sentiments, however, the Freedom Party was hard to define, with many referring to it as a big tent party, mainly influenced by Hagen's personal views and beliefs. With the election of Wacłôw Adómczik as leader in 2018, the party took a sharp turn to the right, including in its platform right-wing populist and anti-immigration sentiments. This in turn led to the centrist wing of the party to split and form their own party. On 6 January 2019, the Freedom Party officially changed its name to the Ostric Coalition, in order to differentiate itself from its previous history as well as cement its new right-wing turn. This also saw the abandonment of the colour yellow for blue and orange.
