Is there a work around to make country flag emoji visible on windows 10 through HTML?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<style>
body {
font-size: 40px;
}
</style>
<body>
<p>9983 will display ⛿</p>
<p>How to display American or Japanese flags?</p>
<p>πΊπΈ is just letters on Windows 10 😓</p>
</body>

I found this on https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/jquery/content/flag/
I don't see a flag emoji on https://www.w3schools.com/charsets/ref_emoji.asp
I can view them on https://www.emojicopy.com/ but cannot use.
I found a CSS flag on https://github.com/pixelastic/css-flags/blob/master/app/styles/_flags/usa.scss
I'm still learning to use stackOverflow, and I'm new at coding. This is my fourth try at this question.
Windows includes the Segoe UI Emoji font, but it does not support flags. To see flag emoji on Windows 10, you'll have to provide a custom emoji font that does support flags.
There's an ISO standard with two-letter codes for countries, like "JP" for Japan. In Unicode, the emoji flags are encoded as a pair of special characters that correspond to "A" to "Z", but that are different characters from A-Z. You can see the different sequences at https://unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html#country-flag. For example, for the Japanese flag the sequence U+1F1EF U+1F1F5 is used. To encode those in a Web page, you can use character entities 🇯🇵
: "π―π΅". If the browser / host OS support display of emoji flags, that's what you'll see. If not, you'll probably see something that looks like "JP".
