I'm from Burma, we use metric system and our own, our roads are in kilometers. I'm fact I only learned the metric system

Fucking outdated map

>They are mentally incapable of using the metric system.

Isn't the usual metric booster line that it's real simple and easy? Can Europeans not remember numbers that are not divisible by ten?

Yes, the world's foremost superpower, economy and military is the Third World.

We need to be more like First World Latin America, Africa and the Middle East, and use the metric system.

Metric blows chunks.

Wasn't Burma under English rule for a while? Why would they not change?

First of all, only one (arguably one and a half) of those countries is "Anglo". Second, neither system is really derived from any one country, and it's typical French insecurity to read some kind of national contest into it. Some of the earliest metric systems were in English-speaking countries and many of the most common imperial units come originally from France.

Umm no. We use nothing but metric here. New Zealand's the same and I'm fairly sure imperial is dying out in the UK

>>77185268
no

Fun fact: the system you use in America is based on a kilogram weight, then changed into pounds. Without realising it, your system of measuring weight is actually based on the metric system.
One of the very weights used for calibration is even housed within the USA.

Interesting, no?
