What does ๐ต๐ฐ Pakistan Flag mean?
A dark green field with a white crescent and star, and a white vertical band at the hoist representing religious minorities. Pakistanis celebrate Independence Day on 14 August, and the flag is everywhere during cricket matches, Eid greetings and family celebrations. It also labels Urdu in language posts and appears in food and travel posts about Lahore and the northern mountains.
Technically, ๐ต๐ฐ is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ต ๐ฐ, which spell the region code PK. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters PK instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ต๐ฐ Pakistan Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
