Osteri Plagosi Trading Company

The Osteri Plagosi Trading Company (O.P.T.C.) is a nation located on Plagos, the northernmost continent of Rathnir. It originaly extended on the islands that of Osteri, to which they put name, however they have expanded over the years to include other parts of Plagos such as Hollenkreis and Duran and Svedia.

Its capital is the city of Lonely Lights, on the biggest and more central island of the Osteri. The rest of the territory extends over the osteri islands, such as Lightless or Flower Island, but it also counts with some land on the main land of Plagos, Hollenkreis and Harktlady, and on the north-west seas of the continent, Durand & Svedia. They also posses the Nieden-Plagos Corridor.

The OPTC was forced, due to Bardonian growing power on Plagos, to join the Archonate of Viodoxa as a province. After their separation the nation joined to the short lived the Great Northen Confederacy. Nowdays the nation is independant.
