Flag: Martinique

Martinique doesn't have an official flag due to its status as a French collectivity. While they do have a flag used for sporting events, the "snake" flag featured on the flag emoji is seen as an insult by locals. It symbolizes a history of slave trading. Martinique's flag emoji features a blue background with a white cross. In each square created by the cross, there lies a curled up snake.
