What the St. Pierre & Miquelon flag emoji means
Saint-Pierre and Miquelon is a French archipelago off the coast of Newfoundland, the only remaining French territory in North America. The official flag is the French tricolour, and the islands also have an unofficial local flag with a ship and the flags of the Basque Country, Brittany and Normandy. People post the emoji around July 14, France's national day, and Basque users also use it because the local flag includes the Basque flag. Fishing and the cod trade shaped the islands' history.
About 6,000 people live there, so the emoji is rarely used.

St. Pierre & Miquelon flag emoji FAQ
Why does the St. Pierre & Miquelon flag emoji show as letters?
Windows does not draw country flag emojis, so π΅π² appears as the letters PM. iPhone, Android, macOS and most browsers on those systems show the flag.
How do I get the St. Pierre & Miquelon flag emoji on Windows?
Copy it from this page and paste it into a chat or document. It will display as PM in apps that use Windows fonts, but other people on iPhone or Android will see the flag. Some apps, such as Discord, draw their own flag images.

What is on the flag of Saint Pierre and Miquelon?
The unofficial flag is blue with a yellow silhouette of the Grande Hermine, the ship Jacques Cartier sailed when he reached Saint Pierre on 15 June 1536. At the hoist are the flags of the Basque Country, Brittany and Normandy. See the Saint Pierre and Miquelon flag page.
Who designed the Saint Pierre and Miquelon flag?
A local resident, AndrΓ© Paturel, created it in the 1980s, using the islands' coat of arms as his basis. That coat of arms was designed in the 1960s by another local, LΓ©on Joner. The flag has no official status but is widely used on the islands.
Does Saint Pierre and Miquelon fly its own flag next to France's?
The unofficial flag flies below the French flag at the Territorial Council building, and it has appeared on official documents. The town halls of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon-Langlade fly only the French flag. French law requires the tricolour to take precedence.
