There is no law. There's only a agreement on length, see SI: The International System of Units (abbreviated SI from the French language name Système International d'Unités). This is the modern form of the metric system. It is the world's most widely used system of units, both in everyday commerce and in science. In general English usage, length (symbols: l, L) is but one particular instance of distance – an object's length is how long the object is – but in the physical sciences and engineering, the word length is in some contexts used synonymously with "distance".

The popular belief is that original standard was the length of a man's foot. The original measurement was from King Henry I, who had a foot 12 inches long; he wished to standardise the unit of measurement in England. The average foot length is about 9.4 inches (240 mm) for current Europeans. Approximately 996 out of 1000 British men have a foot that is less than 12 inches long. A plausible explanation for the missing inches is that the measure did not refer to a naked foot, but to the length of footwear. This is consistent with the measure being convenient for practical purposes such as on building sites etc. People almost always pace out lengths whilst wearing shoes or boots, rather than removing them and pacing barefoot.

5280\n\n\n"in Old England, the mile - derived from the Roman "mille \npassus" or 1000 double steps - was originally 5000 feet long as in the \nRoman definition (1 "passus" = 5 feet). Later, it took 5280 feet to \naccommodate exactly 8 furlongs, the most popular measure of the time.\n\nActually, the usual happened: the foot and the rod went slowly their\nseparate ways, being used by different industries (the weaver and the \nfarmer ....) Things had to be straightened up and, as the foot and the \nrod were already entrenched, we find these strange figures: 16.5 ft/rod \nand 5280 ft/mile. This was voted by the House under Queen Elizabeth I \nin 1595.\n\nIt should be noted that the furlong comes from the Greek and Roman \nstadion, which they themselves inherited from more ancient times. It \nseems to be the optimal length for the traditional plough.\n\nThe rod was determined by lining up 16 men (after the Sunday Service, \nthe story goes) and measuring the combined length of all their left \nfeet. These 16 feet make up 16.5 "feet." Thickness of the shoes? Gaps \nbetween feet? This is tradition ...."

England for a start. We use feet, inches, pounds, miles and stone, we're rather resistant to the metric system. America uses some of it I believe with things liek miles and lbs but i think slowly they're turning to metric more and more. The rest of Europe is very strictly metric, leading the way is France

A "short ton" which is what we usually use in the US is 2000 pounds. A "long ton" is 2240 pounds (used in the UK).\nIn addition, there is a "metric ton" which is 1000kg or 2204 pounds (about). In much of the world this is called a tonne, but in the US, it is usually called a "metric ton."\n\nThe short/long is because of the different definitions in the US and UK for "hundredweight". In the US a hundredweight is 100 pounds, but in the UK it is 112. Either way, 20 hundredweight makes a ton.

acre \narea of land one chain (four rods) in width by one furlong in length. As the traditional furlong could vary in length from country to country, so did the acre. In England an acre was 4,840 square yards, in Scotland 6,150 square yards and in Ireland 7,840 square yards. It is a Saxon unit, meaning field. Probably meant to be "as much area as could be plowed in one day".
