What ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡จ means

Stands for New Caledonia, a French territory in the South Pacific. Two flags fly there side by side: the French tricolor and a local blue, red and green flag with a yellow disc and a traditional Kanak roof spire.

Residents use it for local pride, and travelers use it for Noumรฉa and the island's huge lagoon ๐Ÿข. It also shows up in news about the territory's future status.

Which flag represents the territory is a sensitive local question, tied to Kanak identity.
