I think the colour scheme for the Olympic rings are as follows:

Blue - Europe

Yellow - Asia

Black - Africa

Green - Australia

Red - Americas

Yes it does contain stereotypes but it was chosen many years ago.

That is just one common way of interpreting the colours, but they were never officially assigned to the continents like this. In this quiz the colours are as they appear on the logo while the continents are in alphabetical order. (See first caveat)
