What does ๐ต๐ฆ Panama Flag mean?
Divided into quarters: white with a blue star at the top hoist, plain red at the top fly, plain blue at the bottom hoist, and white with a red star at the bottom fly. Panamanians celebrate several national days in November, including separation from Colombia on 3 November and Flag Day the next day. Travellers use the flag for the Panama Canal and the San Blas islands.
Technically, ๐ต๐ฆ is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ต ๐ฆ, which spell the region code PA. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters PA instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ต๐ฆ Panama Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
