What the Colors Mean
Flag History
Raised on 22 May 1990, the day North and South Yemen merged into a single state. Both predecessor countries already flew red-white-black Arab Liberation tricolors — the North with a green star, the South with a blue triangle and red star — so unification was sealed simply by stripping the emblems from both and flying the plain tricolor they shared.
✨ Did you know?
Yemen's flag is identical to the one Libya flew from 1969 to 1972 — both are the plain Arab Liberation tricolor born of Egypt's 1952 revolution, with nothing added.
Unicode sequence for 🇾🇪
The Yemen flag is not one code point. It is a valid emoji flag sequence made from two Regional Indicator Symbols associated with the region code YE. Unicode defines the sequence; each platform chooses how to draw the resulting flag.
- Regional Indicator Symbol Letter Y
- 🇾 · U+1F1FE
- Regional Indicator Symbol Letter E
- 🇪 · U+1F1EA
Full sequence: U+1F1FE U+1F1EA. Copy the rendered flag above instead of copying one indicator by itself.
