🇫🇴 Flag: Faroe Islands emoji

The flag of the Faroe Islands, a self-governing territory within the Kingdom of Denmark located in the North Atlantic Ocean. The flag features a red cross with blue borders on a white field, based on the design of the Danish flag but with unique Faroese colors. The flag represents the islands' Nordic heritage while asserting their distinct cultural identity.

The Faroe Islands are known for their dramatic landscapes with steep cliffs and green valleys, traditional grass-roof houses, sheep farming (more sheep than people), fishing industry, whale hunting traditions (grindadráp), strong cultural identity, and growing autonomy within Denmark. The islands have their own language (Faroese) and a vibrant cultural scene despite their small population.

This emoji is used to represent the Faroe Islands in discussions about Nordic territories, autonomous regions, traditional fishing communities, or when referencing Faroese culture, dramatic landscapes, sustainable fishing, and the unique North Atlantic island identity.
