Olympic Rings Symbol | History, Meaning, and Significance #2207995 (License: Personal Use)

The Olympic rings consist of five interlocking rings in blue, yellow, black, green, and red on a white background, designed by Pierre de Coubertin in 1912. Each ring represents one of the five continents (Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania), and their interlocking form signifies unity and international cooperation through sport. The colors were chosen because at least one of them appears in every national flag at the time of creation.
