I was sitting around my firend the other night while they were playing chess. I wanted to know where it came from and they didn't know. I thought maybe from the roman empire or something like that. I think i'm wrong though

I posed a question as to why watches in print are always set on 10:11:37. The responses were mostly about the makers mark being visible. I don't buy that; why not 9:18:22 for example? Along the way for my quest to know, someone claimed it was the exact time Lincoln was shot. Could it be true? If so, why clock makers/advertisers chose this event? I asked several designers who felt it sectioned the watch face, I assumed upon seeing the time, it is pleasing - as the hour, day or night, is somewhat stress free. but the fact that every ad has 10:11:37 has an answer. I ask again; why?

Thank you for all of your help on the previous question I asked! Well, it was decided again that my History teacher would give me another unknown guy with some very vague clues.

"This guy had a bright idea, because he decided to transform something used in day to day life to make it better, cheaper, and more pervasive to the consumer. Who is he, what and when did he invent it, and name 5 things in which this invention is used."

I think the Canadians still has that sort of feelings since Canada were the last former British Empire in North America.This is also why they were accepted as part of the British Commonwealth nations just like India,Pakistan,Singapore,Malaysia and Australia. How about the people in the United States?I still believe they have many blood relatives in the UK or in the other regions of the European blocks that they haven't seen or met since half a century ago.Why the United States Of America were not listed as part of the Commonwealth nations?I'm very sorry to ask these questions since i don't know much about the history of North America.Hope you guys would mind to give some infos about these.For those who replied,thanks a lot:-))
