"Ruler" means both a monarch who rules and a measuring device! A 12-inch ruler is the standard length in the imperial system, also called a foot ruler. The word "ruler" for a measuring tool dates back to the late 1500s. Ancient Egyptians used cubit rods as early measuring rulers around 3000 BCE. Modern rulers became standardized in the 19th century. The metric ruler uses centimeters instead of inches, typically 30 cm long!
