1 = I
5 = V
10 = X
50 = L
100 = C
500 = D
1,000 = M
For example, 1776 is MDCCLXXVI
However, you are not allowed to have more than four of the same symbol in a row (except for on some clocks with IIII). But if a smaller symbol is in front of a larger symbol, than it is subtracted.
IV = 4
IX = 9 (I can only be subtracted from V and X)
XL = 40
XC = 90 (X can only be subtracted from L and C)
CD = 400
CM = 900 (C can only be subtracted from D and M)
So 1999 is M CM XC IX. Some people write MIM instead of MCMXCIX. This is incorrect because I can't be subtracted from M.
