Roman numerals are a numeral system that originated in ancient Rome and remained the usual way of writing numbers throughout Europe well into the Late Middle Ages. Numbers in the system are represented by combinations of letters from the Latin alphabet. The system uses only seven symbols: I, V, X, L, C, D, and M.
