If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.

This page lists appearances of the Mondasian Cybermen in the order in which they experienced them. This timeline is based upon observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events that occur during each of these stories.

Origins

There are several conflicting origin stories for the Cybermen, including Mondasians converting themselves to deal with deteriorating planetary conditions (AUDIO: Spare Parts), ancient Cybermen predating the Mondasian Cybermen (COMIC: The Cybermen), and Mondas being another name for Marinus (COMIC: The World Shapers). These accounts seem impossible to reconcile. However, TV: World Enough and Time and The Doctor Falls establish that Cybermen are subject to Parallel Evolution, explaining contradictory sources of their origins. For more information, consult Creation of the Cybermen.

Timeline

N-Space

At this Point it's unknown what happens to the Mondas Ship at the World Enough and Time Episode it's most likely that it returned to Mondas and the Cybermen Invaded it or did something to make the people of Mondas turn to cybermen.

Subject to UNIT Dating but roughly between c.1969 and c.1979.
The survivors of The Invasion plan a second invasion.
The Cybermen launch a second attack on the Wheel, but are pulled into the Land of Fiction.
Occurs some time during the second half of the 22nd century.
Dated 23rd century
The Brotherhood of Logicians are active.
The Cybermen have been assumed extinct for five centuries.
Telos has explicitly been destroyed by the audio Telos so Attack cannot occur after Earthshock.
Occurs light years from the Orion war front lines
The Cybermen are from the 30th century.
Highly advanced Cybermen travel back in time to 2005. However they are unable to convert non humans.
The Cyber-Wars were 1,000 years ago when the Tiberian spiral galaxy was destroyed. This appears to be a different war to the one with Voga.
The Cyberleader is one of the last Cybermen.
Banished from Gallifrey by the Twelfth Doctor, Rassilon joins forces with the Cybermen.

Pete's World

Approximately 5 million cybermen travel through the void to N-Space. These Cybermen are eventually sucked back into the void by The Doctor
A group of Cybermen escape from the void and end up in London in the 1850s

Third universe

Cybermen of a third universe attempt to conquer N-Space only to be destroyed by the War Master.

Unplaced

Unclear placement other than that it is during the 21st century and after humanity has begun colonising space.
Placed in the Death Zone by Borusa.
Set in the 1980s.
The Cybermen work with the Daleks in an attempt to invade 1980s Earth, however it is unclear as to whether time travel is involved with their invasion. The Daleks claim to have invaded Earth in the past.
Invasion of Trenzalore, use the Cybus model seen in Nightmare in Silver and in The Doctor Falls
