The metric system is a system of units for measurement developed in late 18th century in France.It was developed by the chemist Lavoisier to replace the disparate systems of measures then in use with a unified, natural and universal system. In the early metric system there were several fundamental or base units, the meter for length, the gram for weight and the liter for capacity.
