The rings


The rings used to represents the five continents and the meeting of the athletes from around the world.
The rings are connected because people are connected in the games
The symbols designer chose the colours that were the national flags so all colors of the rings are on the national flags.
The rings were made in 1912 the designer's name is Pierre de Coubertin.

The torch

The first flame is lit in Greece in Olympia where the Ancient games were held.

In ancient Greece the Olympic games had sacred fires some sacred fires were on Zeus’s wifes temple.

People get picked to run around each town with the Olympic torch, this year it was from Greece to Rio.
