About Chain (ch)

The surveyor's chain, devised by Edmund Gunter in 1620, measures exactly 66 feet (20.1168 meters) and consists of 100 links. Ten chains make a furlong, and an acre is defined as one chain by one furlong. The chain was the standard land survey tool across the British Empire and shaped property boundaries still in use today.

About League (lea)

Historically the distance a person could walk in one hour, the league has varied considerably across cultures but is most commonly taken as 3 statute miles (4.828 km). Jules Verne's '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea' refers to the distance traveled, not depth -- 20,000 leagues equals roughly 80,000 km, or twice around the Earth.
