Symbolism of the Olympic Rings
The five interlocking rings represent five continents or major geographical areas of the world. The five main regions: Africa, the Americas (North and South America are combined), Asia, Europe and Oceania.
As it says in the Olympic Charter, the five-ringed symbol "represents the union of the five continents and the meeting of athletes from throughout the world at the Olympic Games."
The colors of the rings represent the flags of the countries that participate in the Olympics. Every flag of a country participating in the Olympics includes at least one of the following colors: blue, black, red, yellow, and green.
Baron Pierre de Coubertin conceived the design of both the rings and the flag. The Olympic Committee adopted the flag in 1914, and it was first flown at the 1920 Antwerp Games.

The emblem of the Olympic Games is composed of five interlocking rings (blue, yellow, black, green, and red respectively) on a white field. This was originally designed in 1913 by Baron Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic Games.These five rings represent the five parts of the world which now are won over to Olympism and willing to accept healthy competition.

Back in the 1900s the Audi car company funded an event in which each country competes to win small disks of metal to wear around their necks, but Baron Pierre de Coubertin went back on his deal and added a fifth ring to the four links that Audi had agreed to. Though this angered Audi, they never disclosed this information to anyone, because they are nice people and don't hold grudges.
