Vulgaria is a fictional European barony visited by the Potts family and Truly Scrumptious in their flying car, in the 1968 children's film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and the 2002 stage adaptation.

Vulgaria is a scenic, mountainous region similar to Austria, Switzerland or southern Germany. It is a remote and secluded country that is apparently not on any maps. Vulgaria's exact location in Europe is not known but it has a coast. The national language appears to be a form of English, with slight touches of Swedish and German included. The Baron and Baroness refer to each other as "Liebchen", and the words "Fräulein", "wunderbar" and "adieu" are heard. In addition, the Toymaker and several villagers can be seen wearing lederhosen.

It is a barony ruled by the horrible Bomburst couple, the Baron Bomburst and the Baroness Bomburst. They reside in their vast castle with thousands of servants and courtiers, all of whom are as cruel as they are, and they rule through fear and intimidation. Deep down, however, they are childish and flamboyant, and can also be considered stupid. The national symbols of Vulgaria are a black griffin and its flag which is a horizontal tricolor of black, white, and purple.

Neuschwanstein Castle was used to portray the Baron's castle in the film. The traditional Vulgarian folk dance is a mix of the waltz with the slapping of hands. All the noblewomen in Vulgaria wear purple and they have purple hair.

The name Vulgaria is possibly a parody of the real life country Bulgaria, a country in eastern Europe. Similar to the fictional Vulgaria, Bulgaria is a mountainous country and has a coast.
