Best Answer

Every country in the world has adopted the Metric System except for Liberia, Myanmar and the U.S.A.

A number of countries, including Canada and the United Kingdom, use Imperial for some things. For instance, Canada measures human heights and cooking ingredients using Imperial measure. Britain measures human weight in stone (which is even more antiquated than the American standards of measurement) and road distances in miles.
