About the Réunion flag emoji
The Réunion flag emoji 🇷🇪 exists because Réunion has its own ISO code, RE; keyboards show the parent country’s flag for RE. Under the hood, RE is the regional indicator symbols R E; the Réunion flag appears whenever R and E are displayed together. Windows has no flag artwork, so there RE appears as the letters R E. Réunion (RE) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); RE renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy RE from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Réunion with the other Africa flags, such as Libya, listed beside Réunion.
