Should Unicode add flags for, say, former countries like Yugoslavia, to help remember the pan-slavic movement? Or any of several thousand other non-state flags? The simple answer is that Unicode flags are for countries, and I don't see any reason to give special status to a small group of Americans in the southern United States who have an emotional attachment to this flag.Įdit to note: The Unicode standard on this is clear - the standard governing what flags to include is ISO-3166, and Section 4 of the standard is clear.
Again, I don't understand why this flag would be any different than any other non-state or former flag.
