Ostland (Touryou), officially the Republic of Ostland, is an independent nation in Dovani. Before gaining independence Ostland was the largest and most recent of the Crownlands of Hulstria and Gao-Soto, while also being the most sparsely populated. Ostland was officially a colony of Greater Hulstria, until it was granted Crownland status and full membership in the Empire in 3389.
