Would resetting my Mac to its factory settings delete all of the files on the external hard drive?

If I were to back up my MacBook Pro to an external hard drive, would resetting my Mac to it's factory settings delete all of the files on the external hard drive when I go to back my Mac up again? Not sure how Time Machine works...
