'''Truth''' was a fabricated history broadcast by the [[Monk (species)|Monks]] to maintain control of the [[human]] race.


Despite having only been in control of humanity for six months, the monks broadcasted this false history to brainwash humanity into believing that they had been guiding them throughout human evolution. The broadcast was amplified by [[Monk statue|statues of the Monks]], erected worldwide at the time of invasion.
Despite this, some humans still remembered the real truth. Truth was therefore enforced by the [[Memory Police]] under the [[Memory Crimes Act of 1975]]. Anyone discovered speaking out against the Truth became a [[memory criminal]] and could face a sentence of 10 years in a [[concentration camp|labour camp]].

It should be relocated at Truth (The Lie of the Land) because these two articles are describing the same thing.
Talk about it here or check the revision history for additional comments.

During the Monks' six month occupation of Earth in the late 2010s, the "True History" was a propaganda message presented by the Twelfth Doctor, which told the Monks' altered version of human history. Among other influences, the Monks took credit for saving Earth from the Daleks, the Cybermen, and the Weeping Angels. However, the Doctor was merely acting as such to gain the Monks' trust so he could overthrow them. (TV: The Lie of the Land)
