From this
webpage:
"You will find the Wallachian Kingdom in the old good Europe, in the
Czech Republic, in the region of east Moravia. Just climb the memorable
mountain Radhoąt and you will see it all. On the east side, the kingdom
borders with Slovakia. Just take a walk on the ridge of Javorníky and White
Carpathian Mountains, this is the border. On the north, the kingdom neighbours
with Lachia and their towns of Frýdek-Místek, Nový Jičín and Příbor. Westwards
the mountains gradually recede, and behind the town of Hostýn they meet
a rich neighbour - region of Haná. On the south, nearby the towns Zlín,
Vizovice and villages surrounding Slavičín, are the neighbours of Wallachians
- Moravian Slovaks and Luhačovické Zálesí. That´s the way it is!"
This is a tourist's item, of course, but widely used on Czech (and even
Slovak) pages.

The Valachian Kingdom is a joke by a clown, theatre and movie actor
Bolek Polivka and his friends.

Maybe so - but if a guy is travelling all the way from Czechia to Scott
Base (New Zealand base in Antarctica) in order to unfold that flag at 77o
South it's not a bad one - see this
website <brrrr>

One particular site dragged my attention, for its vexillological significance.
It was a czech resort of exotic tourism for Dominas and their male slaves,
significantly called "Other World Kingdom". In it's pages one could see
the organization's COA and a quite distinct flag -- the latter in photographs
showing indoor and outdoor scenes.
The coa is per bend purple and azure, a pair of handcuffs and a whip,
the mantling azure, royal crown or, closed with four stemms and burning
inside; motto "WOMEN OVER MAN" in sable fraktur capitals on a scroll or
of three foldings.
The flag is 2:3 per saltire blue and red, an ogival eschuteon over
all, white lined black with large thin Venus symbol in black.
António Martins-Tuválkin, 16 Oct 1998
Generally, these organizations and flags do not exist at present.
Jan Zrzavy, 17 Oct 1998.
Revolucni Odborove Hnuti = Revolutionary Trade Union Movement (during
communist era would-be "trade unions").
Vladimír Fuksa, 28 Oct 2003
„Revolucni odborove hnuti” (ROH) - Revolutionary Union Trade
Movement ... it was single allowed trade union organization in Czechoslavakia.
„Socialistický svaz mládeľe” (SSM) - Socialist Youth Union or
Socialist Union of Young People ... it was single allowed young people
organization in Czechoslavakia.
„Československý svaz tělesné výchovy” (CSTV) - Czechoslovak
Union of Physical Training ... it was single state organization for all
sports.
„Svaz pro spolupraci s armadou”¨(Svazarm) - Union for Cooperation
with Army .. it was single state organization governing military training
and similar sports.
etc.
