Miles is american. They probably use other stuff in different countries.

Leagues are never used now, but nautical miles are used on ships, as is the speed in knots (nautical miles per hour). Because a nautical mile is a minute (ie one 60th of a degree), it's the standard way of measuring distance on boats.

What? Miles being wiped out in Britain,. Unthinkable. What everything is being converted into the Metric system?

They started converting everything to Metric years ago, but they screwed it up, so everything is done in metric except distance and speed in cars, the sale of milk and beer, and a couple of other things.
We tend to measure people's height in Imperial, too, out of habit.
So we're basically stuck between the two systems.
Nautical miles are the international standard for use on ships, though.

I think late 30's. Old enough for experience, and young enough to run around and still be able to kill without getting caught.
