The hand is a non-SI unit of measurement of length standardized to 4 inches (101.6 mm). It is used to measure the height of horses in some English-speaking countries, including Australia, Canada, the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom and the United States.
A league is a unit of length (or, in various regions, area). It was common in Europe and Latin America, but is no longer an official unit in any nation.
