Mile

A mile is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom to measure long distances. One mile equals 5,280 feet or about 1.609 kilometers. Miles are often used to measure distances between cities, in running races like the mile run, or for driving distances shown on road signs. The abbreviation for mile is "mi". Although many countries use the metric system with kilometers, miles remain popular in some places for everyday distance measurements and travel.

Statute League

A statute league is a traditional unit of distance used primarily on land and defined as 3 statute miles, which equals about 4.83 kilometers or 15,840 feet. It was commonly used in English-speaking countries for measuring distances before the metric system became widespread. The statute league is different from the nautical league, which is based on nautical miles and used at sea. Although largely obsolete today, the statute league is still found in historical texts and older maps.
