Unit History
About meters
The meter has a long history, first introduced during the late 18th century in France as part of the metric system. Over time, it has been redefined for greater precision but remains the foundational unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). Today, it is used worldwide in nearly all scientific, industrial, and everyday measurements involving distance.
About miles
The mile has historical roots stretching back to ancient Rome, where it was based on the term 'mille passus' (a thousand paces). Over centuries, it evolved in English-speaking regions and is still common in the United States and some other countries for expressing road distances. Despite global reliance on the metric system, the mile remains a staple in everyday usage in these regions.
