MCCXXXVI

MCCXXXVI is the Roman numeral representing the integer 1236. It is formed by adding symbols from largest to smallest: M (1000) + CC (200) + XXX (30) + VI (6), for a total of 1236. This numeral does not employ subtractive notation in this arrangement; it uses only additive symbols arranged in descending order.

In modern usage, MCCXXXVI can denote the year 1236 CE in historical contexts. As a year, it places events in the mid-13th century, a period marked by various developments across different regions. The numeral is also used in contexts where Roman numerals are preferred, such as clock faces, monuments, edition numbering, and the labeling of chapters or monarchs.

The numeral adheres to standard Roman numeral conventions: the largest values are placed first, with repeats limited to commonly accepted limits (for example, three in a row for X and for C, as seen in XXX and CC). MCCXXXVI therefore represents a valid and conventional form within the traditional system of Roman numerals.
