The Edwardian era was a time period in the United Kingdom, during the reign of King Edward VII.
History
In 1901, while on an expedition to the ruins of Babylon, time sensitive linguist John Lafayette stumbled across the Path to Babylon, circa 570 B.C. (PROSE: Walking to Babylon)
The Eleventh Doctor recruited Edwardian explorer John Riddell from 1902 to answer a 24th century distress call which led them to a Silurian Ark with dinosaurs, a space pirate, and two deadly robots on board. (TV: Dinosaurs on a Spaceship)
The First Doctor, Ian Chesterton, Barbara Wright and Susan Foreman visited Zarechny, Siberia in Russia in 1903, where they met Grigori Rasputin. At the time, Nicholas II was the Tsar of Russia. (AUDIO: The Wanderer)
Yaz, Dan and Jericho spent three years in the 1900s following instructions from the Thirteenth Doctor, to find clues to the Flux.(TV: Survivors of the Flux|The Vanquishers) In 1904, they had been in the past for four years. (TV: Eve of the Daleks)
The city of San Francisco on Earth was ravaged by an earthquake and then consumed by fire on 18 April 1906. Thanks to the Seventh Doctor's interference, the gateway through which the creature Azathoth and her rakshassi army hoped to invade Earth opened not in the India of 1887 but in the lobby of the Palace Hotel. Azathoth and her followers were consumed in the fire, while the Doctor, Ace, Benny, Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson escaped. The Doctor departed for England to retrieve his TARDIS, materialising in San Francisco mere moments after he left his companions, although the trip to England took three months. Holmes and Watson rejected the Doctor's offer to join him in his travels. He returned them to Baker Street in 1887. (PROSE: All-Consuming Fire)
The energy created by the impact of a meteor in June 1908, which later became known as the Tunguska Event, caused the Great Divide to open in Russia. This allowed some of the Charrl to enter that time period from 22,000. (PROSE: Birthright) The Third Doctor attempted to take Liz Shaw and Jo Grant to witness the meteor impact but the TARDIS instead materialised in St Petersburg in December 1916. (PROSE: The Wages of Sin)
In 1910, the Squall arrived in London. (PROSE: Paradox Lost)
Among those abducted by the Eternals for the race for Enlightenment were the crew of an Edwardian ship. (TV: Enlightenment)
