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 millimeters
The millimeter, one-thousandth of a meter, emerged from the metric system's emphasis on decimal subdivisions. Due to its small size, it is essential for precision in engineering, manufacturing, and carpentry. Millimeters help ensure fine tolerances are met in fields ranging from automotive parts to delicate consumer electronics.
