a metric ruler is a measuring instrument where the units of measures are not inches, but centimeters.
10 millimetres = 1 centimetre
1 inch = 2.54 centimetre
In the world, only three countries haved not yet adopted the metric system: Liberia, the United States, and Myanmar.
To help people used to the older system, it is possible to find rulers that have a double system, the centimetres being engraved on one side of the ruler while inches are engraved on the other side.
