title: Internationalization of distances in java
body: <p>Is it possible in Java without any extra library to internationalize distances?</p>
  
  <p>I mean it is possible to handle that with date, time, currencies, numbers...</p>
  
  <p>I would have expected to find a NumberFormat.getDistanceInstance or something.</p>
  
  <p>Is there something like that already embedded or should i make my own internationalization system for distances (mostly miles vs kilometers)</p>
