What does ๐ต๐ช Peru Flag mean?
Red, white and red vertical bands; the state version adds a coat of arms with a vicuรฑa, a cinchona tree and a cornucopia spilling coins. Peruvians celebrate Fiestas Patrias on 28 and 29 July, and the flag appears in posts about Machu Picchu, Cusco and the Andes, ceviche and pisco sours, and the national football team.
Technically, ๐ต๐ช is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐ต ๐ช, which spell the region code PE. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters PE instead โ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโs phone.
๐ต๐ช Peru Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
