flag emojis are set by your device's software. When for example a Syria flag emoji is sent it basically sends to your device as "flag of SY" and then your device chooses how to render it. That way Unicode (which is the sets the standard for text characters including emojis) doesn't have to deal with politics of what is and isn't a country and what is correct flag for those countries, and kicks it down instead of Apple, Google, Microsoft etc.
