Super Bowl LIX isn't 59 footballs. King Charles III isn't three kings. Star Wars Episode IV isn't the fourth-ranked film. Roman numerals function as metadata — they tell your brain this number is a name, not a quantity. Don't add it. Don't compute it. Just recognize it as a position in a sequence.

It is thought Roman numerals come from hand signals and tally marks. The stroke I represents a finger, the V represents the gap between thumb and fingers for five, and the X represents hands crossed for ten. The L, C, D, and M come from modifications of Greek letters like chi, theta, and phi to represent 50, 100, 500, and 1,000. Over time, these marks changed into the Latin letters people recognize today. There is no 0 in the Roman alphabet, as the concept for the number 0 didn't fully develop until India invented it around 600 CE / 10600 HE.
