No red. No white. No blue. Jamaica pulled off a flag using none of them: a gold saltire splitting green and black triangles, echoing the motto about a shining sun and a people who are strong and creative. It's a natural pick for Jamaican heritage, reggae culture, and diaspora pride online.
What 🇯🇲 means
A rectangular flag with thick yellow stripes diagonally crossed over each other making an 'X' at the center. It is further printed in black on either side of the 'X' and green on the top and bottom of it.
The 🇯🇲 Flag: Jamaica emoji represents Jamaica; a Caribbean island country, which is also the third biggest island in the Greater Antilles and the Caribbean too. This emoji is shown as 'JM' on some platforms.
