Established History: Difference between revisions

As acknowledged by the [[Infinity Doctor]], the [[Time Lord]]s were sworn to protect '''Established History'''. The [[Rutan Host]] denounced this concept as being no different than the "arrogant, misguided" [[Sontaran]] assertion of [[Established Space]]. The Time Lords understood that [[Earth]]'s history underpinned much of '''established time'''. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Infinity Doctors (novel)|The Infinity Doctors]]'')

The [[Sixth Doctor]] noted that, had the [[Neomorph]] [[Cybermen]] succeeded in diverting [[Halley's Comet]] to destroy Earth in [[1985]], it would bring about "a massive change in established history". Knowing that the Time Lords would never allow it, he came to realise that he had become their unwitting agent in thwarting the plot on [[Telos]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Attack of the Cybermen (TV story)|Attack of the Cybermen]]'') The Infinity Doctor also cited the Cybermen as having threatened established history, that the consequences to universal [[history]] would be catastrophic were they to destroy the Earth before the [[human]] race had reached their full potential.
