Flag: Iraq 🇮🇶

Iraq's flag consists of three horizontal stripes of red, white, and black, with Arabic script reading "Allahu Akbar" (God is Great) in green across the white stripe. The red represents courage and sacrifice, white symbolizes peace and hope, and black stands for past struggles. The flag design was modified in 2004 following the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime, and the green text replaces a previous symbol.

This flag is used to express Iraqi national pride, support Iraqi sports teams, and discuss Iraqi culture and heritage. You'll see it in messages about Iraqi Independence Day, major sporting events, or when people are celebrating Iraqi artistic and cultural achievements.

On social media and in messaging, the flag often accompanies discussions of Iraqi news, politics, current events, and regional dynamics in the Middle East. It may also appear in educational contexts when discussing Middle Eastern geography or history.

The flag's design carries significant historical weight, as Iraq has experienced major political and social upheaval. The flag itself has been redesigned multiple times throughout the country's modern history, with the current version reflecting post-2003 Iraq. The green Arabic text is a distinctive feature that makes it recognizable among similar red-white-black tricolors. This flag was approved as part of Unicode Emoji 2.0 in 2015.
