The league is a measurement of distance long since out of use. A league at sea measured 3.18 nautical miles; the equivalent of four Roman miles but on land it had different values according to the country. These varied from 2.4 to 4.6 statute miles. At sea, the league was usually taken as three nautical miles, the odd fraction being omitted.
