[gkunwar]

Feature request: We should be able to generate national flag of random nation.

Nice idea! I will work on a PR for this.

I was cruising along with this, but ran into an annoying problem - I can't seem to get that leading quote to go away. Ruby seems to not like that unicode escape (even though it renders the emoji), and I have no idea why. Anyone knowledgeable on this able to explain?

[JonathanWThom]

FWIW puts "\u{1F1E6 1F1EB}" works just fine. So maybe I'm just over thinking it 🙂

The closing quote is still there too if you look carefully, only its hidden behind the emoji

[JonathanWThom]

Oh! I guess that makes sense. Really threw me off. Thank you!

Hi @JonathanWThom how is the progress on this issue?

[JonathanWThom]

@gkunwar Just submitted a PR. Thanks for the bump!

I got hung up writing a regex for unicode back in...May. Figured it out though.
