Early in their history, the Pakhars were constantly at war with each other because of an artefact called [[the Diadem]]. In the [[37th century]], there were some pacifists who attempted to change the Pakhar for the better. The [[Third Doctor]] and [[Jo Grant]] came to the planet and got involved with the conflicts.
