Unit Definition (alen [Scandinavia])
The Alen is a traditional Scandinavian unit of distance, which is very similar to the North German Elle: which is roughly equal to 2 feet or 60 centimeters.

Unit Definition (braccio [Italy])
The Braccio is a traditional Italian measurement of length. The word means "arm", and a Braccio is approximately equal to the length of a man's arm, about 27 or 28 inches (68-71 centimeters). In modern times, the Braccio has become an informal metric unit of exactly 70 centimeters (about 27.56 inches), which is the same as the Arm Length unit.
