During the Last Great Time War[[edit] | [edit source]]

Main article: Fall of Arcadia

During the Last Great Time War, Arcadia was thought to be "the safest place on Gallifrey", protected by 400 sky trenches. (TV: The Last Day [+]Loading...["The Last Day (TV story)"]) A posting in Arcadia, scanning the sky trenches, was considered an easy and secure job, desirable among soldiers. (AUDIO: The Conscript [+]Loading...["The Conscript (audio story)"]) It was believed that nothing could get through their defences. (TV: The Last Day [+]Loading...["The Last Day (TV story)"])

The Daleks created a hypnoscape simulation of Arcadia which was visited by Susan Foreman and the Eighth Doctor. (AUDIO: 'The Shoreditch Intervention [+]Loading...["The Shoreditch Intervention (audio story)"])

Despite the city's defences, Dalek forces managed to breach these supposedly impregnable defences on the last day of the War. While one alone was enough to lay waste to Arcadia, countless others descended to destroy everything and sent Arcadia's residents fleeing for their lives, with soldiers desperately trying to fight off the enormous fleet in a losing battle. This led to the fall of the city, which was depicted in a painting. The War Doctor was present; extremely weary by this point in his life from combat, loss and suffering, he chose this location to serve notice to both Daleks and Time Lords alike that he was going to end the Time War today. (TV: The Last Day [+]Loading...["The Last Day (TV story)"], The Day of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Day of the Doctor (TV story)"])

The Doctors bare witness to the ruined state of Arcadia. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

During the Fall of Arcadia, the War Doctor borrowed the gun of a Time Lord soldier to blast the message to both Daleks and Time Lords on a wall — "No more". Once the message was completed, he flew his TARDIS through a wall and into a group of Daleks before fleeing the city. (TV: The Day of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Day of the Doctor (TV story)"]) Bowships were used in the battle, but failed to prevent the city's fall. (PROSE: A Prologue [+]Loading...["A Prologue (short story)"])

The Moment showed the War Doctor, Tenth Doctor, Eleventh Doctor, and Clara Oswald the ruined state Arcadia had been left in by the Time War. Among these images were innocent civilians screaming and crying in terror as Arcadia was torn apart by Dalek invasion. This was a deliberate choice so the Doctors and Clara would understand the ultimate consequences of destroying Gallifrey. This helped convince them to find a more peaceful solution to end the war. (TV: The Day of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Day of the Doctor (TV story)"])

After the Time War[[edit] | [edit source]]

Before the Battle of Canary Wharf, the Tenth Doctor later mentioned that he was present at the Fall of Arcadia, and that he still hadn't recovered from it. He hoped one day to come to terms with it. (TV: Doomsday [+]Loading...["Doomsday (TV story)"])

When a Time Lord author wrote A Brief History of Time Lords, he regarded the Capitol and Arcadia as Gallifrey's two main cities. (PROSE: A Brief History of Time Lords [+]Loading...["A Brief History of Time Lords (novel)"])
