Roman numerals have no symbol for zero.
Why? The ancient Romans had no concept of zero in their math. The concept of zero is accredited to the Mayans and the Chinese, who created Arabic numerals (it was previously falsely accredited to the Arabs, who learned of the number system from the Chinese).

the Romans did not have a numeral for zero. It was invented later by the Arabs.
