What does ๐ฌ๐ต Guadeloupe Flag mean?
As an overseas region of France, Guadeloupeโs official flag is the French tricolour, though several local banners are also seen around the islands. The emoji turns up in posts about Creole culture, zouk and gwoka music, Carnival, rum, the beaches of Grande-Terre and the rainforest of Basse-Terre, and the finish of the Route du Rhum sailing race in Pointe-ร -Pitre.
Technically, ๐ฌ๐ต is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ฌ ๐ต, which spell the region code GP. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters GP instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ฌ๐ต Guadeloupe Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
