What does the Flag: Egypt emoji mean?

1

Misusing the national flag is a criminal offense and punishable by law, since it can be seen as contempt for state authority. Under the hood this is a flag sequence, built from 🇪 Regional Indicator Symbol Letter E followed by 🇬 Regional Indicator Symbol Letter G; where that pairing is unknown, the two letters show instead.

Egypt, officially the Arab Republic of Egypt, sits at the crossroads of North Africa and the Middle East, including the Sinai Peninsula. Fringed by both the Mediterranean and the Red Sea, its national flag features three horizontal bands — red, white and black — with the coat of arms, an eagle, centered on the white stripe.
