Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A Brief History of Time Lords, is a Doctor Who Expanded Universe book by Steven Tribe set in the Whoniverse. The tome covers the history and culture of the Time Lords encompassing information throughout the whole series up until the Series 9 finale — "Hell Bent".In-Universe, the book is written by the boy whom Twelve met after he escape his Confession Dial in "Heaven Sent". Now an adult, he has set down to record the true history of the Time Lords to the best of his ability — which is no easy task with so many incomplete and conflicting accounts with many a snarky comment thrown in for good measure.

comment
Abusive Alien Parents: The author sadly notes that Gallifreyan children are taken from their families at age eight; in fact every seven year old child dreads turning eight. After they look into the Untempered Schism they are put through a selection process into becoming a) Time Lords, b) Soldiers, or c) Member of the Chancery Guard. It's all but stated that those who fail the selection to become Time Lords are chosen for the army or Chancery Guard.

Alien Non-Interference Clause

Alien Non-Interference Clause: Discussed. While most Time Lords think they have it, but the Celestial Intervention Agency was established via Loophole Abuse to stop more "primitive" races from misusing time travel technology and causing havoc, the majority being blissfully unaware. It's also why when the Second Doctor was put on trial for breaking the non-interference law he was only temporarily exiled to Earth with a forced regeneration instead of being a made a public example of; he was just doing what was unofficial Time Lord policy anyway, so the CIA decided to just let him continue doing his thing and make him an agent. Unfortunately for them, they underestimated how much the Doctor relished his freedom and independence and hated being bounced around like a galactic yoyo — the affair with Omega provided them with the perfect opportunity to end the exile, while still recruitng him for missions.

Agri World: Bizarrely the majority of Gallifrey's population outside of the Time Lord cities are farmers.
