What does 🇿🇲 mean?

🇿🇲 is officially named flag: Zambia. It represents Zambia as the Unicode CLDR region identified by ZM, and it can mark the place, its people or teams, travel, location, public events, news, or regional identity.

The flag was designed by Gabriel Ellison; its eagle and three-colour panel sit unusually near the fly rather than the hoist or centre.
