    This document provides a sample outline formatted in MLA style. The outline includes a thesis statement followed by three main Roman numeral points that support the thesis. Each Roman numeral point includes two subpoints labeled with capital letters. The subpoints can then be further broken down with Arabic numerals. The document provides instructions that the outline must reflect the thesis, use proper indentation to show hierarchical levels, include parallel structure with multiple Roman numerals and capital letters, and notes each capital letter can translate to one or two paragraphs.

     The outline must reflect the thesis statement. The major areas of your thesis should
    provide the information for your Roman numeral level.
     You must indent properly from one level to the next to show subordination.
     Remember that if you have a Roman numeral “I,” you must have a Roman numeral II.
    Also, if you have an “A,” you must have a “B.”
     Each capital letter can be developed into one or two paragraphs depending on the topic
    sentence for the paragraph.
