Marquetten Standard System

Marquetten Standard units form a system of measurement units commonly used in Marquette and its territories since being standardized and adopted in 2022. the Marquetten Standard System was developed to be an improvement of the United States customary system used in the united states of America before Marquette became an independent country. As it has continued to be developed the Marquetten Standard System has drawn from other systems, including Icelandic units and English wine cask units.

Temperature

In marquette Fahrenheit is the most common temperature scale in use, however there has been discussion to switch to celsius as well as other more obscure measures including Newton and Réaumur, in addition to such scales there have been proposals for a new scale with freezing set to 0° and boiling at 120° the reasoning behind this being 120 is a Highly composite number and thus is very divisible.

Alcohol proof

Alcohol proof (usually termed simply "proof" or "prf") is a measure of the content of ethanol (alcohol) in an alcoholic beverage. In Marquette proof is defined as 1.8x the ABV as it was in England until 1980.
