What does ๐ญ๐บ Hungary Flag mean?
Red, white and green horizontal stripes. Hungarians fly the flag on 15 March, remembering the 1848 revolution, on 20 August, St Stephenโs Day, with fireworks over the Danube, and on 23 October. It also cheers water polo, handball and football teams, labels the Hungarian language, and decorates posts from Budapestโs thermal baths and ruin bars.
Technically, ๐ญ๐บ is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ญ ๐บ, which spell the region code HU. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters HU instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ญ๐บ Hungary Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
