1 The Olympic flag has five circles to represent the five continents of the world coming together in the spirit of sportsmanship and friendly competition.
2 The colors of the Olympic rings (blue, yellow, black, green, and red) were chosen because every nation's flag contains at least one of these colors.
3 The motto of the Olympic Games is "Citius, Altius, Fortius," which is Latin for "Faster, Higher, Stronger."
4 The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning, but participating and giving your best effort.
5 Between the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) works on promoting the values of the Olympics, organizing future games, and ensuring fair competition and athlete welfare.
