The '''Ostric Coalition''' ({{wp|Kashubian language|Ostric}}: ''Koalicëjô Òstrskô''; {{wp|Norwegian language|Navish}}: ''Ostrøysk Koalisjon'') is a right-wing Ostric {{wp|nationalism|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.
The '''Ostric Coalition''' ({{wp|Kashubian language|Ostric}}: ''Koalicëjô Òstrskô'', KÒ; {{wp|German language|Weranic}}: ''Ostrische Koalition'', OK) is a right-wing Ostric {{wp|nationalism|nationalist}} party in [[Ostry]], a free state of [[Werania]]. Founded by fishing magnate [[Léch Kneller]] in 1998, the party saw electoral success in the mid and late 2000s, first forming the main opposition in 2004 and later heading a coalition government from 2008 to 2012. Since then, the Coalition has faced a declining support base, although it remains a formidable organization in separatist circles.


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 {{wp|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 [[Reform (Ostry)|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.
Politically, the Ostric Coalition calls for the independence of Ostry, and takes a generally conservative stance on other issues. The party has been considered to have used populist and nationalist rhetoric and policies in its platform, and until the mid-2000s was deemed to be anti-establishment by the media. At its height, it courted a large number of voters that felt the rival [[Ostric People's Party]] was too lenient on the topic of independence, and takes most of its support from larger villages on the western side of the island.

The Ostric Coalition (Ostric: Koalicëjô Òstrskô, KÒ; Weranic: Ostrische Koalition, OK) is a right-wing Ostric nationalist party in Ostry, a free state of Werania. Founded by fishing magnate Léch Kneller in 1998, the party saw electoral success in the mid and late 2000s, first forming the main opposition in 2004 and later heading a coalition government from 2008 to 2012. Since then, the Coalition has faced a declining support base, although it remains a formidable organization in separatist circles.

Politically, the Ostric Coalition calls for the independence of Ostry, and takes a generally conservative stance on other issues. The party has been considered to have used populist and nationalist rhetoric and policies in its platform, and until the mid-2000s was deemed to be anti-establishment by the media. At its height, it courted a large number of voters that felt the rival Ostric People's Party was too lenient on the topic of independence, and takes most of its support from larger villages on the western side of the island.
