Theory:Timeline - War in Heaven

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

This page lists appearances of the War in Heaven in chronological order. This timeline is based upon observations of the Doctor Who universe and the events that occur during each of these stories. From these observations we have attempted to build a concise timeline. It is assumed as much as possible, but still with exceptions, that Time Lords meet in the same order. These cases will be noted. In many cases there are sequences of stories from different Time Lords' perspectives, where individual stories can not be compared.

Limiting factors[[edit source]]

The Book of the War provides several guidelines for constructing a timeline. The Second Wave began terrorising Faction Paradox in year 6 of the War, and the Fourth Wave, with biodiverse elements like Robert Scarratt, began in year 17. Humanoid 103-form timeships can only appear after year 10, and Cwejen were first created in year 29.

Any story with the Eleven-Day Empire must take place before AUDIO: The Eleven Day Empire. Any story with Mictlan must take place before PROSE: The Taking of Planet 5, and any story with the War King must take place before AUDIO: Body Politic. Any story set during the War must be before COMIC: Political Animals.
