The Cybermen are a race of artificially modified human or near-humans, commanded by Cyber-Lords. By an unknown point in time, they are one of the major powers in space, possessing at least twelve fleets.

History

By some point in the 52nd century[1], possibly the 51st century, the Cybermen's Twelfth Cyber Legion was well-known to monitor everything within 20,000 light years of the Church base Demon's Run. The Eleventh Doctor and Rory Williams invaded the Legion and destroyed part of it in order to blackmail the Cybermen into giving them information on the whereabouts of Amy Pond - and as a message to the abductors.

The Church's rank and file were intimidated by the Doctor's action. (DW: A Good Man Goes to War)
