Roman Numerals

\mathrm{I,\;II,\;III,\;IV,\;V,\;VI,\;VII,\;VIII,\;IX, and \;X.}

The Roman numeral system is decimal, it does not include the number 0. It is the cousin of the Etruscan numerals. This is commonly used in numbered lists, clock faces, pages before the main body of the books, and many other things. The Romans only used what we would call today as upper case letters for their numbers.
