Canton / Are Units Definition
Canton
A canton is a type of administrative division of a country. In general, cantons are relatively small in terms of area and population when compared with other administrative divisions such as counties, departments, or provinces. Internationally, the most politically important cantons are the Swiss cantons. As the constituents of the Swiss Confederation, theoretically and historically, they are semi-sovereign states.
Are
Are, unit of area in the metric system, equal to 100 square meters and the equivalent of 0.0247 acre. Its multiple, the hectare (equal to 100 ares), is the primary unit of land measurement for most of the world. The are was the basic unit of area when the metric system was first decreed in France in 1795. When the International System of Units (SI) was adopted in 1960, the square meter replaced the are as the unit of area, but the International Bureau of Weights and Measures accepted the hectare as the common unit that can be used with the SI.
