What ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ช means

Sweden's flag: a yellow Nordic cross on a blue field. It stands for Sweden and Swedish pride.

Swedes post it for Midsummer ๐ŸŒธ, National Day and ice hockey. Others use it for Eurovision, ABBA, fika โ˜• and jokes about flat-pack furniture.

The same two colors appear on ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Ukraine's flag, in stripes instead of a cross.
