About the Equatorial Guinea flag emoji
The Equatorial Guinea flag emoji 🇬🇶 shows green, white and red bands with a blue triangle at the hoist and the coat of arms with a silk-cotton tree. Under the hood, GQ is the regional indicator symbols G Q; the Equatorial Guinea flag appears whenever G and Q are displayed together. Windows has no flag artwork, so there GQ appears as the letters G Q. Equatorial Guinea (GQ) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); GQ renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy GQ from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Equatorial Guinea with the other Africa flags, such as Angola, listed beside Equatorial Guinea.
