What is a US league?

A US league is a unit of measurement used in the United States to represent a distance. It is primarily used in historical contexts and is equivalent to three miles or 15,840 feet. The term "league" originated from the Latin word "leuca," which referred to a distance that could be covered in an hour's walk.

In the past, leagues were commonly used to measure distances between towns or to describe the length of a journey. They were particularly useful in determining the distance covered by a ship at sea. However, with the advent of more precise and standardized units of measurement, such as the mile and kilometer, the use of leagues has become less common in modern times.

What is a yard?

A yard is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and other countries that have adopted the Imperial system of measurement. It is equal to 3 feet or 36 inches. The yard is primarily used for measuring distances in everyday situations, such as the length of a room or the height of a person. It is also commonly used in sports, particularly in American football, where the field is divided into 100 yards.

The yard is believed to have originated from the length of a person's stride. In medieval times, a yard was defined as the distance from the tip of the nose to the end of the outstretched arm of King Henry I of England. However, the exact length of a yard has varied throughout history and between different countries. It wasn't until 1959 that the yard was officially defined as 0.9144 meters by international agreement.

While the yard is still widely used in the United States, many other countries have adopted the metric system and use the meter as their primary unit of length. However, the yard is still used in some specialized fields, such as construction and landscaping, where it is more convenient to work with fractions of a yard rather than decimal fractions of a meter.
