Libra and Pound are equivalents in different languages, as well as pfund, pond, pund etc.. Nevertheless different systems created different equivalencies. I used the unit gram from the International System of Units to make the comparison among the different systems. 1 libra [ancient Rome] = 323 grams 1 libra [Italy] = 339 grams 1 pound [Troy] = 373.241 721 6 grams 1 lb, lbs, pound [Avoirdupois] = 453.592 37 grams 1 libra [Portugal, Spain] = 459 grams 1 livre [France] = 489.5 grams 1 libra [metric], pfund [Denmark, Germany], pond [Dutch], pound [metric], pund [Scandinavia] = 500 grams
