The counties of Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Roscommon and Sligo make up this ancient province. Major towns are Galway City and Sligo. The rivers Moy, Shannon and Suck flow through Connacht and the highest point within the 661 square miles of the area is Mweelra (2,685 feet).
Pound and ounce are imperial weight units. There are 16 ounces in a pound. 1 Pound = 16 Ounces. Ounces and pounds are widely-used as units of weight measurement in the USA, Canada, Great Britain and some other countries. The ounce is especially popular in old cooking books.
But the Troy Weight states that one pound is divided into 12 ounces. In the USA and Great Britain the avoirdupois pound is used (though you might have never heard its full name). There are also some other weight systems (Tower, Merchant, London, etc) that have their own definitions of this unit.
