      It’s the calendar date of the day you were born, repeated each year. But that’s not important right now.

            It’s not even like there aren’t two US flag options, too: 🇺🇸🇺🇲

            If anyone figures out the difference, let me know, because these look pretty much the same.

              Apparently because of how flag codes work, the USA and US Minor Outlying Islands technically have different flags in unicode, even though they’re the same flag. There are countless people who have used the USA minor Outlying Islands flag instead of the regular USA flag.
