Skaro was a planet of roughly the same mass and dimensions as Earth, and the twelfth planet from its sun. It had a single continent that was divided into east and west halves of almost equal size. When [[the Doctor]] first visited the planet, it was a nuclear wasteland, whose principle features were a petrified forest, a lake containing dangerous mutations, and the [[Dalek city]]. (''[[The Daleks (TV story)|The Daleks]]'')

Skaro was the home of two races, the [[Kaled]]s (or [[Dal|Dals]]) and the [[Thal]]s. Both races went to war with each other, and the resulting mutations set in motion by the weapons used were soon seen by Kaled scientists as being the end of their species in its "pure" form. The Kaled chief scientist, [[Davros]], accelerated the mutations and placed the results in travel machines. These creatures then became the successors to the Kaleds, the dreaded Daleks.

The Cybermen are a race of cyborgs who are amongst the most persistent enemies of the Doctor. The Doctor's first known encounter with them occured shortly before the end of his first incarnation. (However, the First Doctor's detailed knowledge of the existence and history of the Cybermen's home planet of Mondas, and Susan's apparent familiarity with Cybermen in the Death Zone, hint at a possible earlier encounter.) The Cybermen themselves are known to have first encountered the Doctor in his second incarnation on Planet 14, sometime prior to their first attempt to invade Earth in the 1970s. They have since made numerous reappearances in their bid for world or galactic conquest.
