Is it an 8.5 hour workday everywhere (pretty much)?

I've never questioned this because this is the way it's always been all my life where I live (Wisconsin) for every job I've had and for the jobs I've known others to have. My question is is this the norm, the standard? Work roughly 4 hours, get a half hour unpaid lunch, work roughly 4 more hours for an 8.5 hour workday (with short breaks in each 4 hour period).
