The Olympic Flame or Olympic Torch is a symbol of the Olympic Games. Commemorating the theft of fire from the Greek god Zeus by Prometheus, its origins lie in ancient Greece, â¦ where a fire was kept burning throughout the celebration of the ancient Olympics.
According to the Olympic committee, the 5 Olympic rings represent the 5 continents that participate in the Games: Africa, Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Australia/Oceania. 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. The colors of the rings are not assigned to each continent, instead, they represent the colors of the flags of all the nations that participate in the Olympic games at the time of the design.
