Encoding System

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<!-- contains information which describes document to the machine. -->
<meta charset="falak">
</head>
<body>
<h1>My name is Falak Shair.</h1>
</body>
</html>

In the above HTML code, I used an incorrect encoding system(that is basically my nick name). But, this code outputs readable text instead of an unreadable. If this meta tag doesn't make any impact on document, then why do we use it?
