Why are the number of the Olympics written in Roman?? HELP!!?

Answer 1

because the olympics started from the romans.

Answer 2

Bcos the Olympics was started by the Greeks. In great Roman tradition, when the Olympics was adapted to the modern world, the tradition of Greece is honoured from the marching in, the flag ceremony to the numerical displays.

Answer 3

Because they want to keep yokels, yahoos, burros, & hicks as dumb  as possible, and keep you guessing. (Oh and Olympics started in Greece not Rome-in 89 b.c. or there about)

Answer 4
