U+2691 "⚑" Black Flag Unicode Character
Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+2691 "⚑" Black Flag is a graphical symbol representing a solid, filled black flag, typically depicted waving from a pole, and it belongs to the Miscellaneous Symbols block of the Unicode standard. Historically, a black flag has been associated with anarchy, mourning, or defiance, though in modern digital contexts it is often used as an abstract icon in user interfaces, maps, or flag-related applications. Unlike its white counterpart (U+2690) or the more common triangular pennant, this black flag is rendered as a square or rectangular shape in most fonts, and it does not correspond to any official national or political flag, instead serving as a neutral or symbolic graphic element.
