Spoilers are strongly policed here.
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.

This page lists appearances of the Mondasian Cybermen in the order in which they experienced them. This timeline is based upon observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events that occur during each of these stories.

Origins

There are several conflicting origin stories for the Cybermen, including Mondasians converting themselves to deal with deteriorating planetary conditions (AUDIO: Spare Parts), ancient Cybermen predating the Mondasian Cybermen (COMIC: The Cybermen), and Mondas being another name for Marinus (COMIC: The World Shapers). These accounts seem impossible to reconcile. For more information, consult Creation of the Cybermen.

Timeline

Subject to UNIT Dating but roughly between c.1969 and c.1979.
The survivors of The Invasion plan a second invasion.
The Cybermen launch a second attack on the Wheel, but are pulled into the Land of Fiction.
Occurs some time during the second half of the 22nd century.
Dated 23rd century
The Cybermen have been assumed extinct for five centuries.
Telos has explicitly been destroyed by Telos so Attack cannot after Earthshock.
Occurs light years from the Orion war front lines
The Cybermen are from the 30th century.
Highly advanced Cybermen travel back in time to 2005. However they are unable to convert non humans.
The Cyber-Wars were 1,000 years ago when the Tiberian spiral galaxy was destroyed. This appears to be a different war to the one with Voga.

Unplaced

Unclear placement other than that it is during the 21st century and after humanity has begun colonising space.
