It is from today, Monday April 4, that you can submit a file with the Unicode Consortium to see this thing that is so dear to your heart become an emoji accessible to all. But don’t resubmit the file for the Breton flagit would be useless, it has no chance of being approved.
It’s not a punishment specific to Brittany — how could we punish a region that brings so much (butter) to gastronomy? —, it is a restriction taken for all the flags. How did we get here ? Jennifer Daniel, chair of the subcommittee dedicated to emojis, justified this reversal in a blog post.
In the beginning, there were 10 flag emojis: China, Germany, Spain, France, United Kingdom, Italy, Japan, South Korea, Russia and United States. The reason for their creation is not clear, perhaps they were used to designate different types of food in the first place, but this is only a guess. Still, it quickly became logical to complete the list with the flags of other countries.
