About the Faroe Islands flag emoji
Flag of Faroe Islands, a red Nordic cross edged in blue on white. The emoji is 🇫🇴. The characters behind the Faroe Islands flag are the regional indicators for F and O, spelling FO; two such letters in a row always render as one flag: Faroe Islands’s. Windows has no flag artwork, so there FO appears as the letters F O. Faroe Islands (FO) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); FO renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy FO from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Faroe Islands with the other Europe flags, such as Austria, listed beside Faroe Islands.
