The "archin" is an obsolete unit of length that was historically used in Russia and other parts of the former Soviet Union. The length of an archin varied by region and over time, but it was typically around 28 inches or approximately 71 centimeters. In some regions, an archin could be slightly shorter or longer.
The archin was used for measuring cloth, textiles, and sometimes land. Like many traditional units of measurement, it has largely been replaced by more standardized systems, such as the metric system, in modern times. While the archin is no longer commonly used for official measurements, it may still be encountered in historical or traditional contexts in Russia and other former Soviet states.
There isn't a widely accepted international standard for a "nautical league." The nautical mile (nmi) is the more common and internationally recognized unit of measurement for distances at sea. A nautical mile is approximately equal to one minute of latitude along a meridian, and it is used worldwide for maritime and aviation navigation.
In some regions, historical or localized variations of the league may have been used in the past, but these are not part of the modern international system of measurement. It's important to note that such variations can differ by country and even within different historical periods.
For precise and internationally recognized measurements in maritime and aviation contexts, the nautical mile is the preferred unit of distance. One nautical mile is equal to approximately 1.852 kilometers or 1.15078 statute miles (land miles).
