<p>Those are Roman numerals. In ancient times, people counted using fingers, sticks, bones, etc. As life grew more complex, a<a>standard form</a>was needed for counting. The ancient Romans developed the Roman numeral system for this purpose. I (1), V (5), X (10), L (50), C (100), D (500), and M (1000) are the symbols used for counting.</p>
