🇮🇹
The Italy Flag Emoji 🇮🇹 represents the national flag of Italy, which consists of three vertical stripes: the left side is green, the middle is white and the right side is red. Their specific meaning has changed over time, but the colors are thought to represent hope (green), faith (white) and charity (red).
Adopted officially on January 1, 1948, the flag has actually been in use since 1797, the first time being in 1797 at the Cisalpine Republic. The design is based on the French Tricolor and brings an allusion to Italy's unification and its national identity.
This emoji is largely represented as Italy’s culture, heritage, and pride.
