What ๐ธ๐ณ means
Senegal's flag: green, yellow and red vertical bands, with a green star in the middle. It represents Senegal and Senegalese people.
Fans post it for the Lions of Teranga โฝ๐ฆ, and for wrestling, Dakar's music scene and thieboudienne, the national rice and fish dish. "Teranga", the Wolof word for hospitality, often appears with it.
Without the star, it would look like ๐ฒ๐ฑ Mali.
