CCXIX

CCXIX is the Roman numeral that represents the number two hundred nineteen. The representation follows the standard Roman numeral convention: C (100) repeated twice for 200, followed by X (10) and IX (9), which together sum to 219. The numeral is commonly used in contexts where Roman numerals are applied, such as enumerations of monarchs, chairs in voting bodies, and numbering of events or editions.

In chronological references, the year 219 AD and 219 BC both appear in historical texts. The century designation for the period encompassing these years is the third century (221–300 in the Gregorian system and 101–200 in the Roman calendar). Notable historical events linked to the year 219 AD include the continued consolidation of the Roman Empire under Emperor Caracalla and political developments in the Parthian region. The year 219 BC is referenced in accounts of the Punic Wars and the reign of Pyrrhus of Epirus.

CCXIX also surfaces in modern numbering conventions. For example, various highways and rail lines in different countries are numbered with the Arabic numeral 219, which can be rendered as CCXIX in certain documents or signage. In aviation, certain model numbers or serial numbers occasionally adopt the Roman numeral format, leading to the appearance of CCXIX in technical specifications.

The use of Roman numerals like CCXIX persists in legal, academic, and ceremonial contexts where tradition and formality are valued. The format is recognized by institutions such as the United Kingdom Parliament, the United Nations, and various historical societies, which continue to employ Roman numerals for indicating budgets, session numbers, and commemorative lists.
