Emoji Codes
Flag emojis are unicode symbols, like any other letter or number on your keyboard. This means you can copy and paste the emoji itself into your code, whatever the language (click the button above).
They actually count as two characters: the two-letter country/territory code (the ISO international standard). The unicode and shortcode both represent territory data which devices can interpret and display the emoji.
| Territory Code | Unicode | Shortcode |
| GL | U+1F1EC U+1F1F1 | :flag_GL:n:GL: |
Emoji shortcodes are used on some platforms as a way for users to type in emojis from the keyboard. If you type the emoji shortcode on Github or Slack, the emoji will appear.

The flag of Greenland features two horizontal bands of white (top) and red (bottom) with a large counter-changed disk slightly off-centre towards the hoist. The white band represents the ice cap and glaciers, while the red band symbolises the ocean. The disk represents the sun setting over a fjord. It was designed by Thue Christiansen and adopted on 21 June 1985, making it one of the few flags without the colour blue despite being an island territory.
