The number zero does not have its own Roman numeral, but the word nulla (the Latin word meaning “none”) was used by medieval computists in lieu of 0.

The zero permitted using position in a number to indicate value (each position to the left is ten times greater), rather than counting up the I, V, X, etc. and multiplying each, moving values to the next letter, etc. – a process so complicated that they used an abacus. The abacus is basically a positional system, but without the zero, cannot be a written process. The most valuable thing western Europe got out of the crusades was nothing (0).
