For the basic prefices you could try the mnemonic:
King Henry Died By Drinking Chocolate Milk
for Kilo, Hecto, Deka, Base, Deci, Centi, Milli.
Base stands for metre, gram, litre etc, the basic unit.
There are other variations.
This only goes from 103 to 10-3 in multiples of 1/10. There are others that go from Yotta (1024) to the Base in steps of 10-3, and from the base to Yocto (10-24) but these are rather more difficult to remember, partly because of the letters involved and partly because the same letters occur in both sequences - much in the same way that deka and deci do above.

What would happen if we do not have a standard measurement?
Than all people will have to use metric measurement. Schools will have to provide special courses for teaching metrics, metric tools for measuring will have to be bought, and everything will have to be relabeled. * * * * * But if all people use the metric system then you will have standard measurements! The question is about what will happen if you don't.
Why do people consider the metric system easier to use than US system?
The metric system uses conversion factors of 10 for all units. Instead of remembering all the different conversions between each unit (4quarts=1gallon, 5280feet=1mile, ect), you only have to memorize a couple of prefixes. The (common) metric prefixes are Milli=1000th Centi=100th Deci=10th Deka=x10 Hecto=x100 Kilo=x1000
