Unit History
About yards
The yard is an old English unit that was eventually standardized in England under various monarchs. Today, it remains part of the US customary and British imperial systems. Though not as widely used as the meter internationally, yards are still frequently referenced in certain sports (like American football) and in casual measurements within the US and UK.
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.
