What does ๐ฌ๐ฎ Gibraltar Flag mean?
A white upper band and a red lower band, with a red three-towered castle in the middle and a golden key hanging below, a symbol of the fortress guarding the Strait. Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, and Spain also claims sovereignty. Gibraltarians celebrate National Day on 10 September, and visitors use the flag for the Rock and its Barbary macaques.
Technically, ๐ฌ๐ฎ is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ฌ ๐ฎ, which spell the region code GI. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters GI instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ฌ๐ฎ Gibraltar Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
