The Olympic symbol on the five-ring flag is determined by the Olympic Charter. It consists of five Olympic rings nested together, which can be monochrome, blue, yellow, black, green and red. The rings are nested from left to right, with blue, black and red rings above and yellow and green rings below. The overall shape is a regular trapezoid with a small bottom.
The logo fully embodies the content of Olympism and the theme of "Olympic family" of "all countries-all nationalities". A popular explanation is that the color of each ring represents a continent. Yellow represents Asia, black represents Africa, blue represents Europe, red represents America, and green represents Oceania.

First, the origin of the five-ring symbol of the Olympic flag:
The Olympic logo was first designed by Coubertin, and the prototype was taken from the five rings on the altar of Delphi in ancient Greece. Mr. Coubertin explained his design concept like this: "The five-color ring symbolizes the five continents in the world that recognize the Olympic movement and are ready to participate in the Olympic competition. The sixth color, white-the background color of the national flag, means that all countries can participate in the competition under their own national flag, without exception. "
