The liter was introduced in France in 1795 as part of the metric system to simplify volume measurement. It was based on the volume of one kilogram of water at maximum density, later standardized as one cubic decimeter [bipm-si-brochure]. Liters are widely used worldwide for measuring liquids, such as fuel, beverages, and chemicals. It is the preferred unit in most countries except the United States, where gallons remain common alongside liters in scientific settings [nist-si-guide].
