Minyos was the homeworld of the Minyans. It was an Earth-like planet discovered by the Time Lords early in their space-time exploration, and they advised the Minyans as gods for centuries before the Minyans rose up and attacked every Time Lord base, killing many. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Underworld)

After driving out the Time Lords, the Minyans developed further technology, including nuclear weapons which they used to cause a nuclear war that split the planet, (TV: Underworld) leaving only a field of asteroids for the Time Lords to discover. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Underworld) In reality, Minyos was accidentally destroyed by a Time Lord Timonic Fusion Device, with the civil war story disseminated as a cover. (AUDIO: The Inquiry)

A Minyan ship, the R1C, survived the destruction and joined together with the descendants of another Minyan ship, the P7E, to colonise Minyos II, (TV: Underworld) in the neighboring system to Minyos. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Underworld)
