What does ๐ฒ๐ท Mauritania Flag mean?
A green field with a gold crescent and star, framed by red stripes along the top and bottom that were added in 2017. Mauritanians celebrate Independence Day on 28 November, and the flag appears in posts about the Sahara, the Eye of the Sahara rock formation, the ancient libraries of Chinguetti and the famous iron ore train.
Technically, ๐ฒ๐ท is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ฒ ๐ท, which spell the region code MR. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters MR instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ฒ๐ท Mauritania Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
