What 🇲🇻 means
A green flag with a thick red border enclosing the fabric and a right-facing white crescent moon at the center. The 🇲🇻 Flag: Maldives emoji refers to the South Asian archipelago which also forms a state, the Republic of Maldives.
This emoji is shown as 'MV' on some platforms.
The flag itself shows a green rectangle bearing a white crescent, framed in red — the crescent for Islam, red for the nation's defenders. As with every flag emoji, it's built from two regional-indicator letters, so a few platforms display the letter pair instead of the artwork.
