The Olympic symbol is made up of five interlocking rings and includes six distinct colors: blue, yellow, black, green, and red, on a white background. This symbol represents the unity of the five continents: Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania, signifying inclusiveness and global cooperation through sports. The colors were chosen because they appeared in the flags of all participating nations at the time, creating an emblematic representation of international harmony. The Olympic rings have become a widely recognized symbol, encapsulating the spirit of the Olympic Games and its ideals.
