Unicode Version 17.0
🇻
U+1F1FB "🇻" Regional Indicator Symbol Letter V is a special character that represents the letter V in a system designed for creating flags in text, known as regional indicator symbols. It belongs to a set of 26 letters from A to Z that, when paired together, display a country's flag based on its two-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code. For example, combining this character with U+1F1E6 "🇦" (Regional Indicator Symbol Letter A) renders the flag of Venezuela, while pairing it with U+1F1ED "ðŸ‡" produces the flag of Vietnam. These symbols cannot be displayed in isolation as meaningful images but serve as building blocks for digital flag representations in compatible software and platforms.
