About the peace symbol symbol

The peace symbol, a circle with three lines inside, is internationally recognized as a sign for peace and non-violence. It was originally designed in 1958 for the British nuclear disarmament movement, combining the semaphore signals for the letters N and D.

This character appears in text as a stylized icon, often used in messages, posters, and social media to express anti-war sentiment or a general desire for harmony. It is part of the Miscellaneous Symbols block and is also available as an emoji.
