Roman numerals are an ancient Rome numbering system widely used throughout Europe in the Late Middle Ages to write numbers. The numbers in this system are represented by combinations of letters from the Latin alphabet. For everyday use, seven symbols with a fixed integer value are utilized.
In ancient Rome, the Romans utilized a consistent system of numbering called Roman numerals. They were adopted from the Etruscan numbers system and mainly were used for counting. The classical numeral system was slightly modified in the Middle Ages, culminating in the numerical method that we use today, in which letters represent values as numerals.
As it is currently employed, the Roman Numeral Numeric System is based on seven symbols from the alphabet.

Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution.
