there are many flags worldwide that are similar or near identical to the flag of poland despite being unrelated to it. for example, the historical flag of bohemia, the major historical region of poland's southern neighbor, the czech republic, consists of two horizontal stripes, white on top and red on bottom. similarly to the flag of poland, it is of heraldic origin, the coat of arms of bohemia being "gules, a lion rampant, queue fourchée argent, crowned, langued and armed or", that is a silver double-tailed lion in a red field. the white-and-red kingdom of bohemia flag came into use in 12th century (flag of poland dates to 13th century). after the end of the first world war in 1918, kingdom of bohemia flag was shortly used as a flag of the newly formed czecho-slovak republic. in 1920, a blue triangle was added to reflect slovakia presence. the flag was used by czechoslovakia until its dissolution in 1992 and currently is used as the flag of the czech republic. however, the traditional flag of bohemia in proportion 2:3 (by contrast to 5:8 proportion of the polish flag) was introduced again from 1990 to 1993 as the flag of the then not independent czech republic, one of the constituent entities of the czech and slovak federative republic. after the dissolution of czechoslovakia the traditional white-and-red kingdom of bohemia flag has become obsolete.

the association's flag consists of a large white "v" (an inverted chevron) separating a blue triangle above from two red triangles on either side. the length of the top side of the blue triangle is the same as the width of the flag. (note that a flag's "width" is its vertical dimension when flying from a flagpole.) the flag proportion is 2:3.









































the "v" represents vexillology. the colors are taken from the flags of the two countries covered by the association: canada (red and white) and the united states (red, white, and blue).
