What exactly is a nautical league (int.)?

It is a historical maritime unit of length equal to three international nautical miles or 5,556 metres, used mainly in the 18th and 19th centuries.

How small is a micrometer [µm]?

A micrometer is one millionth of a metre and is used to measure microscopic dimensions in science and engineering.

Why would I convert large nautical distances to micrometers?

Converting to micrometers allows precise scientific analysis and archival work that requires consistent smaller scale units.
