Roman Numerals
 

Roman Numerals on Wikipedia: Roman numerals originated in ancient Rome, and were used in Europe until the late Middle Ages (1300-1500).

For larger numbers, the following symbols are used:

  • X: 10
  • L: 50
  • C: 100
  • D: 500
  • M: 1,000

This means that the year 2000 is written as MM, and the year 1998 is written as MCMXCVIII.

Roman numerals were eventually replaced by the Arabic numerals (0 to 9) we use today. The Arabic numerals in turn are based on Hindu numerals. Note that in the 15th century, the character for 5 used to look like the current character for 4.

 
Doing research for this page, I found the following AI slop disinformation that claims that Romans never actually used Roman numerals. The Romans used Roman numerals everywhere, from the Colosseum in Rome to the tomb of a soldier in the 18th (XVIII) Legion.
What clues are there in the video that it is AI?
