About the Sierra Leone flag emoji
๐ธ๐ฑ is the flag of Sierra Leone: green, white and blue horizontal bands. Like every country flag, the Sierra Leone emoji is really two regional indicator letters, S and L, spelling the ISO code SL; side by side, SL merge into the Sierra Leone flag. Windows has no flag artwork, so there SL appears as the letters S L. Sierra Leone (SL) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); SL renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy SL from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Sierra Leone with the other Africa flags, such as Burkina Faso, listed beside Sierra Leone.
