The Roman Empire
The Roman foot was based off of the Roman inch, just as our feet and inches are related. However the Romans had nothing as simple as our inch, foot, yard, mile measurement. They had several length measurements before they finally reached the term for the Roman mile. The Roman foot was 12 unicae, (inches) and was called a pes. Five pedes (plural of pes) was 1 passus. 1000 passus was a mile.

The length of a Roman foot, which was called a "pes", was based on the "unciae" which was the Roman inch. Twelve unciae equalled one Roman foot, just as in our measurements twelve inches equals one foot.
