What the Niue flag emoji means
Niue is a small island nation in the South Pacific, self-governing in free association with New Zealand since 1974. The flag is yellow with a Union Jack canton, and a blue disc with a yellow star sits in the middle of the cross. Constitution Day falls on October 19, the date self-government began in 1974. Niue is also known as the Rock of Polynesia for its raised coral coastline.
Fewer than 2,000 people live there, which makes it one of the smallest countries in the world. The emoji is rarely used in everyday messages.
