What the Madagascar flag emoji means

The Madagascar flag emoji shows a white vertical stripe on the left, with red above green on the right. Malagasy people use it on Independence Day on 26 June, which marks independence from France in 1960. It also appears for wildlife, because the island is home to lemurs and chameleons found nowhere else, and for vanilla, baobab trees and travel posts.
