6. The Clock Has a “IIII” Instead of a “IV”

The clock on the front of the castle has “IIII” instead of a “IV”. Many might be quick to point it out as a mistake, but it’s not! The Imagineers did that on purpose to be true to the historical time that the castle is set in. The “IV” roman numeral wasn’t used until after the Colonial Period in American history, and since Cinderella’s Castle is set a couple centuries before that, the Imagineers chose to use a IIII instead.
