	~~The '''Slylandro Timekeeping''' system is based entirely on a single natural phenomenon, the rotation period of their homeworld,~~ [[Source~~]]. Since the [[Slylandro]] lack any form of physical technology, this method of keeping time has persisted throughout the history of their race.~~		#REDIRECT [[Source]]

	The principle unit of time in this system is the Drahn, equivalent to four million rotations of their home planet. A Drahn is sub-divided into two thousand Drahnasa. For even smaller periods of time, the Slylandro simply use the rotations of their homeworld as a unit of time. The following is an approximate conversion factors between Slylandro and Human units of time:

	*1 rotation = 14.2 earth hours ≈ 0.592 earth days
	*1 Dranhasa ≈ 1180 earth days ≈ 3.24 earth years
	*1 Drahn ≈ 2370000 earth days ≈ 6480 earth years

	In discussions with the Slylandro, they consistently make reference to events using these units of time. When converted to conventional units of time, the timing of these events corresponds fairly well with known historical findings — specifically, "3 Drahn ago" and "39 Drahn ago" yield nearly the same date as the other sources indicate. The following table lists these events with the Slylandro time and corresponding [[Human]] time:
