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.
