'''Southern Barrens''' is a generic term for all the lands on the southern part of the [[Great Divide]]. This region is not only one of the most hardest hit by the [[Cataclysm (event)|Cataclysm]], but also is one of the biggest war zones in the escalating conflict between the [[Alliance]] and [[Horde]]. In the wake of the Cataclysm, the Alliance has been aggressively expanding into the heart of the continent from the east coast.

==Notes==
−
Geography defines the conflict here. The [[Battlescar]] sits in the middle of a narrow pass, a natural bottleneck. The Alliance needs to blast its way through here in order to maintain an overland link between Theramore and Northwatch Hold, not to mention a route into the [[Stonetalon Mountains]], where the Alliance can lend aid to its allies. If the Horde can seal off this pass, then [[Theramore]] will essentially be isolated. The conflict comes to a head in the Battlescar... and the future of [[Kalimdor]] may hinge on the outcome.

Low level Horde players can get into the zone through the entrance at [[Mulgore]], but as the zone is much higher level, this can prove somewhat of a challenge. Another approach for Horde players is to take the path from Stonetalon Mountains. Alliance players can either run through [[Dustwallow Marsh]] or head down the coast from [[Ratchet]] to [[Northwatch Hold]].

The landscape here is predominately barren, an exception being the [[Overgrowth]] situated in the northern part of the region, near the Great Divide and is separated from the Northern Barrens by a huge river of lava.

−  
−
* [[Bael Modan]] – slightly expanded with new stonework; tiny [[Horde]] camp set just to the north called [[Spearhead]]
 
−
* [[Bael Modan Excavation Site]] – now attacked by Horde raiders, though [[Bael Modan]] itself is not
 
−
* [[Blackthorn Ridge]] – the northern corner now has a [[Goblin]]-run mine
 
−
* [[Camp Taurajo]] – burned down by [[Alliance]] forces and is now being looted; the nearby road to [[Mulgore]] is now blocked by a [[Tauren]]-erected gate, [[Great Gate|The Great Gate]]
 
−
* [[Field of Giants]] – west side taken by the Horde who have erected [[Desolation Hold]] and are constantly fighting with the Alliance; east side taken by the Alliance, called [[Fort Triumph]]; both have flight paths and serve as quest hubs
 
−
* [[Fields of Blood]] – the [[Quilboar]] have more defenses in some areas, but have lost an encampment to the Horde, now called [[Vendetta Point]] near Camp Taurajo
 
−
* [[The Great Lift]] – the road running north of here almost all the way to Blackthorn Ridge has been overrun with giant brambles; the Lift itself appears to be destroyed; just outside the brambles is [[Mankrik]], elite now and fighting the Quilboar; further north is a small, neutral quest hub called [[Firestone Point]], run by the [[Earthen Ring]]
 
−
* [[Honor's Stand]] – the Alliance have taken this pass into [[Stonetalon Mountains]] and are erected a gate of their own while fighting off the Horde; full-fledged Alliance camp here with flight master; the Horde have a camp of their own just south of here in the hills called [[Hunter's Hill]], with a flight path and '[[The High Road]]' to enter Stonetalon Mountains
 
−
* [[The Overgrowth]] – the lands south of the [[Lushwater Oasis]] have become overgrown and lush; there is a new Horde camp on the NE side, [[Camp Una'fe]], that houses some of the Camp Taurajo refugees; further to the east is another encampment where [[Naralex]] awaits with quests; further east and on the edge of the Overgrowth is a small Alliance camp, [[Teegan's Expedition]]
 
−
* [[Northwatch Hold]] – Controlled by the Alliance and is now a quest hub with flight master; a road leads from the back side down to the shores shared with [[Dustwallow Marsh]] where a dock sits – the boat seems to come from the [[Eastern Kingdoms]] (according to the NPC); The Hold is under constant attack by the Horde, who have a small camp just to the north in the hills and ships in the water; due west of here and near the main road is an Alliance encampment, [[Forward Command]]
