Trojan War
The Trojan War, also known as the plural Trojan Wars, (TV: The Ark) was a conflict fought circa 1200 BC between the Greeks and the people of Troy. The war began when Paris, the son of King Priam of Troy, ran off with Helen, wife of King Menelaus of Sparta. The war ended after ten years, thanks to the First Doctor, who came up with the idea of using a wooden horse containing Greek soldiers. (TV: The Myth Makers)
The Rani was also present at the Trojan War at some point in the conflict, extracting chemicals from the brains of humans. (TV: The Mark of the Rani)
