Minyos II

Minyos II, (TV: Underworld) which the Fourth Doctor claimed could also be known as "New Minyos or Minions II "depending on your nomenclature preferences", (GAME: Lost in Time) was a colony planet established in a neighboring system by the Minyans of Minyos before civil war broke out and the Minyans destroyed their own planet, the Minyans hoping to populate the planet and restart their civilisation. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Underworld)

It was located on the other side of the universe and three hundred and seventy years away from the planet that formed around the P7E on the edge of the universe. (TV: Underworld)

The Doctor and Leela were present when Tala and the other surviving Minyans landed on Minyos II and began to prepare for its geomorphing. They noted appreciatively that it was hospitable to life but currently barren, side-stepping the quandaries that might have been posed by the presence of indigenous life there. A small party of Daleks from the Last Great Time War, intent on perverting the reborn Minyans into a Dalek slave-race using the Mutation Device, also landed on New Minyos at this time, but Leela managed to get them to destroy one another.
