Litres is great and should be used exclusively.
For larger volumes, kilolitre (kL) can be used. A kL is also a cubic
metre. Neat isn't it?

Isn't this a good enough reason to use litres. I know how big the litre is
in Australia, even though I have never been there. Even if some Australians
prefer to write liters rather than litres, this does not affect its size.

Antigua use UK gallons
Grenada and St Lucia use gallons but I don't know which sort.
