How many countries don't use the metric system?

Just three. Only three nations have not officially adopted the International System of Units (aka the metric system or SI) as their primary or sole system of measurement: Liberia, Myanmar and the United States.

And we know how progressive Liberia and Myanmar are.

And the US uses different-sized liquid measurement than the Imperial standard.

Chuck, "a pint is a pound", but only in the US
