The are (/ˈɑr/; or /ˈɛər/ symbol a) is a unit of area, equal to 100 square metres (10 m × 10 m), used for measuring land area.
1 a = 100 m2
1 a = 0.01 ha
1 a = 0.0001 km2
The hectare (/ˈhɛktɛər/ or /ˈhɛktɑr/; symbol ha) is an SI accepted metric system unit of area equal to 100 ares.

The acre is a unit of land area defined as the area of 1 chain (22 yards) by 1 furlong (220 yards), which is exactly equal to 1⁄640 of a square mile or 43,560 square feet. One acre equals 0.0015625 square miles, 4,840 square yards, 43,560 square feet or about 4,047 square metres (0.405 hectares). While all modern variants of the acre contain 4,840 square yards, there are alternative definitions of a yard, so the exact size of an acre depends on which yard it is based. Originally, an acre was understood as a selion of land sized at forty perches (660 ft, or 1 furlong) long and four perches (66 ft) wide; this may have also been understood as an approximation of the amount of land a yoke of oxen could plough in one day. A square enclosing one acre is approximately 69.57 yards, or 208 feet 9 inches (63.63 metres) on a side.

Only for height (though official forms require metric). Everything else is in metric.

Literally not knowing even what Azerbaijan is.

Measuring things with your feet and refusing to use the objectively better system that scientists are forced to use anyways (aka smart americans).

So dumb.

Also: like half of your country believes the word was made by a wizard 6000 years ago, despite overwhelming evidence.

You don't even know how good it is to be relatively irrelevant. If we were even more irrelevant due to, let's say, not being next to the big bear, it would be even better.

I LOVE the fact that Estonia is a small irrelevant country. That let's us do stuff others can't. Like fast technological development and no refugee applications. Stay mad cavelard.
