A statute mile is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom. It is officially defined as 5,280 feet or 1,609.344 meters. The term "statute mile" distinguishes it from other types of miles, such as the nautical mile. The origin of the statute mile dates back to an Act of Parliament in England in 1593, which standardized the length of the mile. It is primarily used for measuring distances on land, such as in road signs, speed limits, and maps. While many countries have adopted the metric system, the statute mile remains in everyday use in a few countries. In contrast to the nautical mile, which is used for air and sea navigation, the statute mile is mainly applied in land-based contexts. It is also used to calculate speed in miles per hour (mph), especially for vehicles and road travel.

Vara Conuquera


The vara conuquera is a traditional Spanish unit of length used historically in some parts of Spain and Spanish America, especially in land measurement. It is a regional variation of the vara, which generally measures around 33 inches (about 0.84 meters), but the vara conuquera specifically is associated with the unit used for measuring conucosβ€”small agricultural plots or gardens.


The length of the vara conuquera could vary locally but was typically similar to or a fraction of the standard vara. It was used primarily in rural land surveying and agriculture to define plots and land boundaries.

  • Approximately 0.83 to 0.84 meters (varied by region)
