๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ผTaiwan Flag Emoji

What does ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ผ Taiwan Flag mean?

A red field with a blue canton bearing a white sun with twelve rays, a design known as โ€œBlue Sky, White Sun, and a Wholly Red Earthโ€. People use the emoji for Double Ten Day on 10 October, trips to Taipei, night markets and bubble tea, Mandarin written in traditional characters, and Taiwanese food.

Technically, ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ผ is not a single character: it is the pair of regional indicator letters ๐Ÿ‡น ๐Ÿ‡ผ, which spell the region code TW. Apps that support flags combine the two letters into a flag; Windows does not draw country flags, so on Windows you see the letters TW instead โ€“ the emoji still arrives as a flag on the recipientโ€™s phone.

๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ผ Taiwan Flag is an emoji from the Flags category (country flags), added in Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
