About the Timor-Leste flag emoji
Flag of Timor-Leste, a red field with a black triangle bearing a white star inside a yellow triangle at the hoist. The emoji is 🇹🇱. The characters behind the Timor-Leste flag are the regional indicators for T and L, spelling TL; two such letters in a row always render as one flag: Timor-Leste’s. Windows has no flag artwork, so there TL appears as the letters T L. Timor-Leste (TL) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); TL renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy TL from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Timor-Leste with the other Asia flags, such as Azerbaijan, listed beside Timor-Leste.
