<p>Royal titles, such as Henry I, Henry II, and so forth, often use Roman numerals. Have you ever noticed these<a>symbols</a>and wondered what they represent? Those are Roman numerals. In ancient times, people used fingers, sticks, bones, etc., to count. As life became more complex, a<a>standard form</a>was required for counting. Ancient Romans developed the Roman numeral system for this purpose. The symbols I (1), V (5), X (10), L (50), C (100), D (500), and M (1000) are used in this system.</p>
