Every week, as a part of my newsletter, I track where all the cybersecurity funding and M&A events are happening around the world. Outside of the deal terms, I collect a whole host of data on each company involved in the transaction, including city, state, country, and continent.
I track all of this in a database I’ve made on Airtable to slice and dice things easier, and I decided to start using flag emojis somewhere along the way. Many country flags were easy to remember, but with 240+ countries, it was easy to miss a few. 🥴
So, I decided to make a complete resource of all the countries, continents, regions, ISO Codes, ccTLDs, and emoji flags to share!
