Spotlight Wallachian Kingdom – reporting from a land that doesn’t exist
A rather strange court case made the news recently when the deposed king of the make-believe Wallachian Kingdom lost a seven year legal battle with his former ‘foreign minister’ over the copyright to the fictitious realm.

And confusingly, it’s situated in the real Moravian region of Wallachia. Our reporter Rob Cameron went there to find out what all the fuss was about.
