"Why is 12-hour time even taught? Wouldn’t it just be easier to remember 13:00 instead of 1:00pm? 12 hour time is a very ancient system that traces back to the Mesopotamian empires. They had a cultural fixation on the number 12, used a base-12 numerical system, and divided up most things into 12ths whenever possible - including day and night.
The 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night system spread throughout Europe and the Middle East and has defied multiple attempts to change it over the centuries. Also for anyone curious why there was such a love of the number 12, it was because that was how they counted on their hand.
Look at your hand. Notice how each of your fingers minus your thumb has three easily identifiable parts to it. They used to count by using their thumb to count each part of the finger, much in the same way we count to 10 using our fingers today. So, 12 was the max you could count on one hand"
Is like lgtv+ I have nothing to prove, nothing in my head, nobody cares what I do in my bedroom, but I have blue and green hair.
This is Nepal. I have nothing but a big mountain with a few monks on it, but I don't put myself in line with the world. I am independent and I keep 15 minutes for a masturbation.
Yeah, well the French and English engineers building the channel tunnel did not think our antiquated system of measurement was stupid....after they figured out the two side were not going to meet and called us to fix it.
Bash my country if you want,, it just makes you petty and small.
Thanks for the into into your stupidity just because YOU refuse to understand something doesn't mean you can belittle it.
