An unpolitical history of the Imperial System[edit | edit source]
The Imperial System was invented in 1756 when George III got mad about the French and Indian War and decided to make his own system of measurement because he was being anti-French. The unit of length was based on the length of his foot, the unit of weight was based on his weight, and the unit of pressure was based on the average pressure of his farts (it wasn't very accurate because it was still the 18th century). Then the Americans and Australians kept using it but the Canadians didn't because they were pRoGrEsSiVe.
