A nautical mile (NM) is the distance, of one minute (60 minutes = one degree) of latitude along the Prime Meridian passing through Greenwich, England. Ships at sea used sextants and the stars to determine latitude, so it was easy to measure distance using a unit based on latitude.
The statute mile is so named because it was standardized by an act of Parliament in 1593, i.e., a statute. It is also called a surveyors mile, or more commonly, mile. The mile is based on the old Roman unit of distance, the mil (meaning thousand) that was equal to one thousand paces (two steps). Stones were placed every mil along roads to indicate the distance to Rome, thus the term milestones, and the saying "All roads lead to Rome."
