About Square Megameters
A square megameter (Mm²) equals the area of a square with sides of one million meters - 10¹² m², or one trillion square meters. At this scale we describe major geographic and planetary regions. The entire land surface of Earth is about 149 Mm², the Indian Ocean covers roughly 70 Mm², and the Sahara Desert spans approximately 9.2 Mm². Square megameters provide a convenient scale for comparing continent-sized areas without resorting to hundreds of millions of square kilometers.
About Roods
A rood (ro) is a traditional English unit of land area equal to one quarter of an acre, or 40 square rods, approximately 1,011.71 m². Originating in medieval England, the rood was used alongside the acre and the perch for describing land ownership. The name shares its root with 'rod,' the linear unit used to measure it. While largely obsolete in modern use, roods still appear in old English legal documents, historical land surveys, and certain rural property records in England and Wales.
