O.G. Slovakian Flag

Actually, the original Slovak flag (only flown during WWII) was similar to the current Russian flag. They added the Slovak national symbol to the flag when they broke off from the Czech Republic because the Russians claimed the other flag.
 
Pan-Slavic tricolore... not so good for the small countries trying to create their identity, Slovenia have discussed changing theirs to avoid further confusion with Slovakia :D

Imo the Slovak crest alone would be a kickass flag.

Oh.. and:

"Before the separation of Slovakia and the Czech Republic, a resolution was passed by the Czechoslovak government that neither of the two "new" states could continue to use the red white and blue flag of Czechoslovakia. Upon separation, Slovakia adopted the White/Blue/Red flag with the shield of arms in the upper hoist. The "new" Czech Republic adopted the flag of former Czechoslovakia, in direct violation of the resolution mentioned above. Slovakia was ticked off over this, but the Czech folks said "The country that made that rule doesn't exist any more" and refused to change.
