Dates are based on the [[Great Crystal]] being 800 years old. In addition, [[Ambril]] states the middle [[Sumaran Era]] was 700 years ago.
There is a slight error in dating in that the Great Crystal is said to be 800 years old, but Federation records begin six hundred years after the fall of the Manussan Empire, so it should be 1100 years old.

The Manussan year was the time scale used by the inhabitants of Manussa.

In 2326, the Mara manifested through its original creation via the Great Crystal, and the Manussan Empire was replaced by the Sumaran Empire. (AUDIO: The Cradle of the Snake)

In 2926, the Federator banished the Mara to the Dark Places of the Inside. (TV: Snakedance)

In 3426, the Mara, while possessesing Tegan Jovanka, used her to pilot the Doctor's TARDIS to Manussa, where it planned its Becoming on the 500th anniversary of its defeat. (TV: Snakedance)

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

There is a slight error in dating in that the Great Crystal is said to be 800 years old, but Federation records begin six hundred years after the fall of the Manussan Empire, so it should be 1100 years old.
