Northu Numerals

The Northu Numerals are a unique numerical notation system developed by the High Council of Northudankton. This system expands upon the traditional Roman numerals to facilitate the efficient representation of larger numbers. The introduction of Greek symbols allows for the succinct depiction of values reaching up to one million.

The system integrates both Roman and Greek characters as follows:

Arabic Numeral	Northu Numeral
1	I
5	V
10	X
50	L
100	C
500	D
1,000	M
5,000	Δ (Delta)
10,000	Ω (Omega)
50,000	Π (Pi)
100,000	Σ (Sigma)
500,000	Φ (Phi)
1,000,000	Ψ (Psi)

The Northu Numerals adopt a similar additive and subtractive principle as in Roman numerals. A smaller numeral symbol following a larger one implies addition, while a smaller numeral symbol preceding a larger one indicates subtraction. For instance, the number 65,033 in Northu Numerals is denoted as ΠΩΔXXXIII.

Despite the introduction of Greek characters, the Northu Numerals maintain a strong resemblance to their Roman counterparts. They illustrate a seamless integration of Greek and Roman systems in their design and structure, ensuring that the system is easily comprehendible, particularly for those already familiar with Roman numerals.

Remembering the new symbols can be facilitated by two mnemonic devices. The first four Greek letters—Delta, Omega, Pi, and Sigma—can be remembered by their acronym DOPS. The last two, Phi and Psi, can be memorized as the opposite of Sci-Fi: Phi Psi.

The creation of Northu Numerals exemplifies Northudankton's innovative approach to traditional systems. By extending the capacity of Roman numerals, Northudankton has provided a novel method for representing large numbers, demonstrating their commitment to advancing traditional systems to meet contemporary requirements.
