Here is an example of a nested list:

<ol>
  <li>Item 1</li>
  <li>Item 2
    <ol>
      <li>Subitem 1</li>
      <li>Subitem 2</li>
    </ol>
  </li>
  <li>Item 3</li>
</ol>

This will output:

 - Item 1
 - Item 2
    + Subitem 1
    + Subitem 2
- Item 3

Note that the subitems have "Item 2" as their parent node.
