The rings are five interlocking rings, coloured blue, yellow, black, green and red on a white field, known as the "Olympic rings". The symbol was originally created in 1913 by Coubertin. He appears to have intended the rings to represent the five continents: Europe, Asia, Africa, America, and Oceania.

These five rings -- blue, yellow, black, green and red -- represent the five parts of the world now encompassed by Olympism and ready to compete against each other. Moreover, the six colors (including the white background) thus combined represent those of all nations, without exception. The blue and yellow of Sweden, the blue and white of Greece, the French, English, American, German, Belgian, Italian and Hungarian tricolors, the yellow and red of Spain are side by side with the new Brazilian and Australian flags, the old Japan and the new China. It is a true international emblem.

The flag of the Olympic Games have five interlocking rings (blue, yellow, black, green, and red) on a white background. These rings represent the five parts of the world that were joined together in the Olympic movement: Africa, the Americas (North America and South America combined), Asia, Australia and Europe. Antartica is not included as one of the continents. No one ring represents a specific place. At least one color of the six colors of the Oympic flag (including white) are included in the flags of every country in the world.
