Explanation

The Olympic symbol consists of five interlocking rings representing the five inhabited continents (Africa, Americas, Asia, Europe, Oceania). The rings were designed by Pierre de Coubertin in 1913 and first appeared at the 1920 Antwerp Olympics. The colors (blue, yellow, black, green, red on white background) were chosen because every nation's flag contains at least one of these colors.
