Liberia exists because of Americans who didn’t love the idea of freed former slaves in northern states having the right to vote (or rights in general). So they shipped these former slaves back to Africa so they could have their own country. Liberia is the second oldest black republic (Haiti came first). They just kinda kept using US customary units once they got there.
Myanmar and Liberia.

No idea why Myanmar uses US units.
I mean, Myanmar was a british colony… basically they fucked up everything, everywhere.
It’s there a UK version of Americans ironically shouting USA! In celebration of their fuck -ups?
TIL thanks!
