Olympic Rings Symbol - History, Meaning, and Global Significance #2207798 (License: Personal Use)

The Olympic rings consist of five interlaced circles-blue, yellow, black, green, and red-on a white background, symbolizing the union of the five continents and the meeting of athletes from throughout the world at the Olympic Games. Designed by Baron Pierre de Coubertin in 1912, the rings were first used at the 1920 Antwerp Games and have since become one of the most recognized symbols globally. Each color was chosen to ensure at least one ring matched the flag of every participating nation.
