'''Kalimdor''' is one of the continents of [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]]. It is located to the west of the [[Eastern Kingdoms]] and southwest of [[Northrend]]. The [[Great Sea]] lies in between the continents. Kalimdor is home to the [[Night elf|night elves]], [[orc]]s, [[tauren]], [[troll]]s, and [[draenei]]. Other races present include the [[ogre]]s, [[centaur]], [[naga]], [[demons]], and other, more minor, races.

== Patch changes ==
Kalimdor can be further divided into three major regions (western continents)<ref>''[[Lands of Mystery]]'', pg. 74</ref> known as [[Northern Kalimdor|North Kalimdor]], [[Central Kalimdor]], and [[Southern Kalimdor|South Kalimdor]]. Other sources vary on how it is divided. The ''World of Warcraft'' Manual divides it into the Northern Kalimdor and Southern Kalimdor regions. The various editions of the ''[[World of Warcraft Guide]]'' breaks it into Northern Kalimdor, Central Kalimdor, Southern Kalimdor, and [[Teldrassil]] regions. At least one map has divided it into the three regions of [[Durotar]], [[Mulgore]], and Kalimdor (shown through largest font size and caps),<ref>''[[Warcraft: The Roleplaying Game]]'' map: [[File:AzerothWRPG.jpg|40px]]</ref> although the Durotar and Mulgore emphasis could just be the fact that the book talks about the Tauren and Orcs' new homelands throughout the book. A few maps however do not divide Kalimdor into separate continents and treat it as one single large landmass.

*{{Patch 4.0.3a|note=Added}}
 
Kalimdor was primarily the domain of the night elves in the ten thousand years between the [[War of the Ancients]] and the [[Battle of Mount Hyjal]]. In the years since the battle, night elf dominion has given way as the tauren adopted a more centralized system and accepted their allies, the orcs and the trolls into their midst. The recent arrival of the [[draenei]] adds a new power to the map.
 
 
The name "Kalimdor" means "Land of Eternal Starlight" in [[Titan (language)|Titan]] and [[Darnassian]].{{fact}}
 
 
Now, however, the continent is a politically divided one, the Horde have established strong control in the central and eastern areas while the night elves, now aided by the draenei, preserve footholds in northwestern areas.
 
 
== Continent (pre-Sundering) ==
 
Prior to the [[Great Sundering]] in which the original [[Well of Eternity]] imploded, Kalimdor was the name of the world's singular landmass which later was split into the three main continents (known so far).
 
 
==Geography==
 
Kalimdor has a huge variety of both animal and plant life. Within this continent, you will find almost every land type; from the ice cold plains of [[Winterspring]] in the north, to the hot desert of [[Tanaris]] in the south. The mystical woods of [[Ashenvale]], the dry, rocky [[Thousand Needles]], the tropical, lush jungle of [[Feralas]] — this continent has it all.
 
To the north the landscape is primarily coated in thick alpine woodland, typical in areas such as [[Ashenvale]]. Central Kalimdor, home to the horde, is far more rugged and barren, save for the safety of Mulgore. In the south, desert areas dominate the terrain; however, nestled between these bleak landscapes are realms of beauty and wonder such as the thriving tropical regions of [[Feralas]] and [[Un'Goro Crater]].
