What does ๐ฑ๐ง Lebanon Flag mean?
Red, white and red horizontal stripes, the white twice as wide, with a green cedar tree at the centre, a symbol of strength and endurance. Lebanese people and a huge diaspora use it to show pride, celebrate Independence Day on 22 November, and share Beirut nights, mountain villages and mezze such as tabbouleh, hummus and manakish.
Technically, ๐ฑ๐ง is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ฑ ๐ง, which spell the region code LB. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters LB instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ฑ๐ง Lebanon Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
