The flag code for Clipperton Island, a tiny uninhabited French atoll in the eastern Pacific off Mexico. It flies the French tricolour, so the emoji looks like ๐ซ๐ท.
Real use is rare: geography quizzes, shipwreck and survival stories, and flag collectors. Choosing ๐จ๐ต when ๐ซ๐ท is meant gives the same picture on most devices.
The atoll is known for a grim history of stranded settlers and for its masses of land crabs.
