Well, if we didn’t have horses, how else could we tell how fast can a car go? By cat power? Haha, clearly our world turns around, or let me say, the world trots around thanks to our equine friends.
Seeing as how America still measures things in foot, I think the measurement for horsepower would probably be “manpower”, as weak as that is. Or maybe dogpower? I know first nation people used dogs as sled animals, and that’s pretty much universal - except for Oceania.

We should be just careful of who is riding who.
Not to derail your point, but growing up in Australia, we would mostly use kW. Like, it’s a 200kw engine instead of saying a 270hp engine.
