Ostema Province (Mirselec Ostema denai), also known as Province 1, is the southernmost province of Risevne. It is located on Masalne, at the southern tip of the Raretoya Peninsula. The capital of the province is the ancient city of Nesnoma.
A famous historic region of the country, the province was home to the powerful Kingdom of Rarena, which extended up the entire peninsula and lasted nearly 600 years before its personal union with the Kingdom of Masal in 1249. Despite the union, however, the area is known for its being a rather independent region of the old kingdom, and even now there is a clear cultural and dialectal divide between provinces like Ostema and provinces farther north in the Feladmena Plain.
