Unit History
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.
About inches
The inch, once based on the width of a human thumb, is now precisely 2.54 centimeters. Alongside feet, it remains common in the US, Canada, and the UK for many small-scale measurements, such as monitor screens, tool sizes, and parts in home-improvement stores. Its standardized conversion makes it simpler to toggle between customary and metric systems.
