This article is about the term "Dalek Empire" as used in the Doctor Who Universe. For other uses of the term, see Dalek Empire (disambiguation).

The Dalek Empire was a time and space-spanning empire created by the Daleks.

History

Origins

The Empire was formed during unknown period in their history, presumably after venturing into space from their home planet of Skaro.

Previous to the Last Great Time War

As always, time travel makes the sequence of events here conjectural.

The Daleks would later seek to expand their empire into all of history as well, using time travel. It still centred itself around Skaro. (DW: The Evil of the Daleks, DW: Day of the Daleks)

During the Imperial Dalek-Renegade Dalek Civil War, the Empire broke into a faction known as the Imperial Daleks, loyal to Davros (now calling himself the Emperor) and another, the Renegade Daleks, loyal to the Supreme Dalek. Waging war with each other, the Doctor seemed to have defeated both factions. (DW: Remembrance of the Daleks)

The Dalek Prime and Davros survived the war and encountered one another once more during a decline in Dalek pervasiveness throughout the galaxy. Davros was again defeated and the Dalek Prime set about rebuilding the Empire. (EDA: War of the Daleks)

Last Great Time War and aftermath

United and re-unified once more, the Daleks, including Davros (DW: Journey's End) and the Dalek Emperor (DW: Bad Wolf) fought the Time Lords.

See Last Great Time War

Though the lone Time Lord survivor, the Doctor, remained unaware of this, the Emperor survived and build up a new army of Daleks from Human genetic material (DW: The Parting of the Ways). Later, Dalek Caan rescued Davros from the Last Great Time War in an attempt to recreate the Empire. The result was the New Dalek Empire. (DW:The Stolen Earth, DW:Journey's End)

Behind the Scenes

The John Peel novel War of the Daleks came up with the concept of the Dalek Prime and reinterpreted the Imperial Dalek-Renegade Dalek Civil War in such as a way as to show that no real civil war had taken place. A number of fans disagree with this interpretation.
