What does ๐จ๐ฉ Congo - Kinshasa Flag mean?
A sky-blue field crossed diagonally by a red stripe edged in yellow, with a yellow star in the upper corner. The blue stands for peace, the red for the blood of the countryโs martyrs, the yellow for its wealth and the star for a radiant future. Congolese people share it for Independence Day on 30 June, the Leopards football team, Congolese rumba and the vibrant Kinshasa music scene.
Technically, ๐จ๐ฉ is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐จ ๐ฉ, which spell the region code CD. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters CD instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐จ๐ฉ Congo - Kinshasa Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
