About Stremmata
A stremma (στρέμμα, plural: stremmata) is the standard Greek unit of land area, equal to exactly 1,000 m² (0.1 hectare). It is the unit every Greek and Cypriot uses for fields, olive groves, vineyards, and rural plots - in everyday Greek, no one says '1,000 square meters'; they say 'ένα στρέμμα.' Greece's total agricultural land is measured in millions of stremmata. One stremma equals approximately 0.2471 acres or 10 ares. The word derives from the Greek 'στρέφω' (to turn), historically referring to the area a plough could turn in a given time.
About Townships
A township (twp) is a large survey unit used in the US Public Land Survey System, defined as a square with sides of 6 statute miles, giving exactly 36 square miles or approximately 93,240,000 m². Each township is subdivided into 36 one-square-mile sections of 640 acres each. The Township and Range system is how most US land west of Ohio was divided and sold; township numbers and names still appear in legal land descriptions, county records, and geographic placenames across the American Midwest and West.
