What does ๐ฌ๐ฆ Gabon Flag mean?
Three horizontal stripes of green, yellow and blue, representing the forests, the equatorial sun and the sea. Much of Gabon is rainforest, protected by a large network of national parks. Gabonese people post the flag on Independence Day, 17 August, and for the Panthers football team, and travellers use it for Loangoโs beaches, where elephants and hippos wander onto the sand.
Technically, ๐ฌ๐ฆ is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ฌ ๐ฆ, which spell the region code GA. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters GA instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ฌ๐ฆ Gabon Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
