Rwanda’s national flag wasn’t changed immediately after the Tutsi-led Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) overthrew the Hutu-led government in 1994, an event that brought the Rwandan genocide to an end. The "Flag: Rwanda" emoji is a flag sequence made from the 🇷 Regional Indicator Symbol Letter R and the 🇼 Regional Indicator Symbol Letter W. On platforms that support flag sequences, these combine to display as a single emoji.
