If by Romans you are referring to the Book of Romans or any of the references to Romans and the Roman Empire in the New Testament, it is because the New Testament is written in Greek. It is only the Old Testament that is written in Hebrew and / or Aramaic.
The King James of the King James Version of the Bible would be King James I of England. He is credited to be the first ruler to authorize the translation of the Bible to a "common" tongue (most Bibles in circulation at the time were in Latin, and thus unreadable to all but the clergy of the Catholic Church; other translations, like Martin Luther's translation of the Bible into German, were done while the rulers of the nations were still opposed to any translation of the Bible).

King James was an English King who wanted the Bible
translated into English, so he could read it. Some think
William Shakespear, who wrote many plays like Macbeth,
did the translation. And that's why we have the poetic prose,
the THEEs and THOUs, that everybody hates.
Why wouldn't the word Romans be in there? They ruled
the Holy Land at the time of Christ.

If you mean the book, Romans is to whom this letter is written to. King James authorized the translation of the Bible into English.

good point!
the mystic greek and gnostic writings that were edited down to what we call bible today became heretical after the council of Nicea
I think you are on to something here.
King James was another figure used to polarize the world into "us and them" by clergy and use religion as tool for wars, as it is today
for those who don't read bible just quote Gerry Mander'd scriptures to support own faith
READ ALL OF ACTS
and see Saul kill Jews then jump sides, then when caught trying to lie to original deciples and his new followers jumps ship again and claims to be a Roman, not what Jews wanted to hear since Jesus and any of the 400 something messiahs at the time (read the dang book of acts ch 4,5) all came and went unsuccessful
'Paul' now a newly nationalized immigrant indoctrinated Judaism, Mysticism and Gnosticism into what we know as Christianity
the idea of a man who was really divine but only told Paul and his converts not original and still orthodox Jews who demanded rituals to be done, and Paul had to do it...read the book if you don't believe me
once you see in plain writing in any translation Paul was a con man and liar, it all unravels from there
once you see that pharisees were the good guys but painted as both and the bible conflicts itself, it all becomes apparent
IF you use logic, reason, and common sense
blind faith? just keep believing what people want you to and don't actually read your holy book
