Black.
The Olympic logo, officially known as the Olympic Rings, consists of five interlocking rings of different colors: blue, yellow, black, green, and red. These rings are arranged in three on the top row (blue, black, and red) and two on the bottom row (yellow and green).
The middle ring of the Olympic logo is the black ring, as it is positioned in the center of the top row. This arrangement was designed by Pierre de Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic Games, in 1913. The colors of the rings, along with the white background, were chosen because at least one of these colors appears in the flag of every nation in the world, making the symbol universally inclusive.
The Olympic rings symbolize the unity of the five inhabited continents – Africa, the Americas, Asia, Europe, and Oceania – coming together in friendly competition. The design represents not only the global nature of the Olympics but also the shared values of excellence, friendship, and respect that the Games promote.
Over the years, the Olympic rings have become one of the most recognizable symbols in the world. They are featured on flags, official Olympic merchandise, and promotional materials related to the Games. The simplicity of the design, combined with its deep symbolic meaning, contributes to its lasting impact.
