🇬🇮 Flag: Gibraltar emoji

The flag of Gibraltar, a British Overseas Territory located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula. The flag features a white stripe at the top with a red stripe below, and a red castle with three towers and a key hanging from the central tower, representing Gibraltar's strategic position as the "Key to the Mediterranean."

Gibraltar is known for its strategic military and naval importance controlling the entrance to the Mediterranean Sea, the Rock of Gibraltar (a massive limestone ridge), Barbary macaques (the only wild monkey population in Europe), duty-free shopping, mixed British and Spanish cultural influences, and ongoing sovereignty disputes between Britain and Spain.

This emoji is used to represent Gibraltar in discussions about British territories, Mediterranean geopolitics, strategic military locations, or when referencing the Rock of Gibraltar, Barbary apes, sovereignty disputes, and Gibraltar's unique position as a British enclave connected to Spain.
