What ๐ฆ๐ผ means
The flag of Aruba, a Dutch Caribbean island off Venezuela. It is light blue with two thin yellow stripes and a red four-pointed star edged in white.
Honeymooners and cruise passengers post ๐ฆ๐ผ with beach and sunset photos, often with ๐๏ธ. Arubans use it for Flag Day and carnival, and the island's slogan "One happy island" often rides along.
Aruba is a country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands, so ๐ณ๐ฑ and ๐ฆ๐ผ sometimes appear together.
