There is no 'comes first' until you get to the first floor. Ground level is just ground level, a standard any kind of construction has.

Good post

The Europakis are right, its called ground floor because its in the ground level (~0m above ground) thus the next level is the first floor (first floor built)

Americucks probably use that system because they're too stupid to use sunken foundations (i.e. pylons) and they build a huge slab of wood or mezzanine to build their McMansions on it, technically its the first floor

you need to demonstrate that it's false or else the presumption stands
