Flag: U.S. Outlying Islands emoji meaning

The U.S. Outlying Islands emoji represents the small territories belonging to the United States that are located in the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. These islands are scattered across these regions and are under U.S. jurisdiction. Although the emoji exists to symbolize these islands, it is not widely supported on most platforms and might appear as a two-letter code instead. The U.S. Outlying Islands include areas such as Wake Island, Johnston Atoll, and Baker Island, among others. These territories are mostly uninhabited or have small populations and are often used for scientific research or military purposes. The emoji provides a way to represent these remote but significant parts of the United States in digital communication.

The flag: U.S. Outlying Islands emoji is also known as UM Flag Emoji.
