There are 5 Olympic rings. Each one is supposed to stand for one continent.
All the other (inhabited) continents get their own Olympic ring:
Africa - black
Europe - Green
Oceana - Blue
Asia - Yellow
North America and South America are two separate continents (some people like to say they are the same continent, which is ridiculous. just look at a map. they are obviously two separate landmasses. how europe and asia, on the other hand, get counted as two separate continents, is beyond me). Why should they have to share an Olympic ring (Red).
I think they should add a 6th Olympic ring so that each continent has their own. That would be much more fair.
