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.
