9. IOC states about the rings
“The five rings represent the five continents. They are interlaced
to show the universality of Olympism and the meeting of the
athletes of the world during the Olympic Games. On the Olympic
flag, the rings appear on a white background. Combined in this
way, the six colours of the flag (blue, yellow, black, green, red
and white) represent all nations. It is a misconception, therefore,
to believe that each of the colours corresponds to a certain
continent.”
