**The volume of a lorry, also known as a truck or a commercial vehicle, can vary greatly depending on its size, type, and configuration. Lorry volumes are typically measured in terms of cargo capacity or cargo space. This can be expressed in various units such as cubic meters (m³) or cubic feet (ft³).
The volume of a lorry's cargo space is determined by its dimensions, including length, width, and height. Larger lorries, such as tractor-trailers or articulated lorries, often have significantly greater cargo capacities than smaller delivery trucks or vans.
To determine the volume of a specific lorry, you would need to measure the dimensions of its cargo area and calculate the volume using the formula:
Volume = Length × Width × Height
Keep in mind that the actual usable volume may be less than the calculated volume due to factors such as the shape of the cargo space, obstructions, or loading constraints.**

America's wealth today is not solely due to slavery, but it did play a significant role in the country's economic development during the 17th to 19th centuries. The institution of slavery allowed for the accumulation of wealth through forced labor, particularly in agriculture and cotton production, which contributed to economic growth.

It was originally "Merry", but in England by Victorian times (that is, during the reign of Queen Victoria) "Merry" had come to be a euphemism for "drunken", and Victoria didn't think it was appropriate for her to wish her subjects "drunken Christmas", so she went with "Happy". "Happy" still predominates in the UK and and in former Commonwealth countries; elsewhere where English is spoken (basically, in the US) "Merry" is more common (the US had broken away from the British Empire before Victoria was born).
