Miles

Miles are a unit of length in the imperial and U.S. customary systems, defined as 5,280 feet or 1,760 yards. Miles are commonly used in the United States and some other countries for measuring longer distances, such as road travel or geographical features. The mile has historical origins in ancient Roman measurements.

Chains

A chain is a unit of length equal to 66 feet or 22 yards. It has historical significance and was widely used in the past for measuring large plots of land, especially in agriculture and real estate. The chain was often employed alongside other traditional units of length, such as rods and links. The use of chains has diminished in modern times, replaced by the metric system or other standard units of measurement. However, in some historical contexts or when dealing with older land survey records, you may still encounter references to measurements in chains.
