Facts about Kilometer

A kilometer is a unit of length in the metric system, its symbol is “km”, which is equivalent to one thousand meters and 0.6214 miles. kilo- is the SI prefix for 1000. A slang term for the kilometer in the UK, US, and Canadian militaries is “klick”.

The origin of the kilometer is connected to the origin of the meter, and its current definition is the distance traveled by light in 1/299 792 458 seconds. 

Currently, it is the official measurement unit to express distances between the world’s most geographical places on land. Although, there are still some countries that mostly use the mile instead of the kilometer including the United Kingdom and the United States. The UK has adopted the metric system, unlike the US, while in the United Kingdom, the metric system is widely used in government, commerce, and industry.

Facts about Mile

The mile, sometimes the international mile (statute mile) to differentiate it from other miles, is the United States customary and British imperial unit of distance (symbol: mi or m). It is presently defined as 1,760 yards, 5,280 feet, or precisely 1,609.344 meters.

A mile is an English unit (predecessor of United States Customary and Imperial units) of length. Prior to the overall adoption of the metric system, the use of the abbreviation “m” for a mile was common; “mi” became the preferred abbreviation in order to avoid confusion between miles and meters. The definition of a mile as 5,280 feet (or 8 furlongs), sometimes referred to as the land mile, statute mile, or international mile, which varies from the Roman mile of 5,000 feet, formed back in 1593, due to the importance of the furlong in England. There also exist a lot of units closely related, or based on the Roman mile, including the nautical mile (1.852 km exactly), Chinese mile (exactly 500m), and Italian mile (approx. 1.852 km).

In spite of the fact that most countries have adopted the metric system and use kilometers, rather than miles, to express land distance, the mile is still mostly used in countries such as the United States, United Kingdom, Liberia, and Myanmar, as well as some other countries which are territories either of the United Kingdom or the United States or have historical connections with either country.
