What does ๐ฐ๐ฎ Kiribati Flag mean?
The upper half is red with a golden frigatebird flying over a rising sun; the lower half is blue with three white wavy stripes for the Pacific and the countryโs three island groups. Spread across the equator, Kiribati includes Kiritimati, one of the first inhabited places to welcome each New Year. The emoji also features in climate and sea-level discussions.
Technically, ๐ฐ๐ฎ is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ฐ ๐ฎ, which spell the region code KI. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters KI instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ฐ๐ฎ Kiribati Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
