Roman numerals are a numeral system originating in ancient Rome, using combinations of Latin letters to represent values. The basic symbols are:
- I = 1
- V = 5
- X = 10
- L = 50
- C = 100

Rules of Roman Numerals:
- A smaller numeral before a larger numeral means subtraction (e.g., IV = 4, IX = 9).
- A smaller numeral after a larger numeral means addition (e.g., VI = 6, XII = 12).
- The same symbol cannot be repeated more than three times in a row (e.g., 4 is IV, not IIII).
This system was widely used in ancient times and remains relevant for numbering chapters, clock faces, and more today.
