A King is typically the title of a hereditary, male monarch of a nation, region, or state. The spouse of a king is usually called a queen, but is rarely given a portion or shared rulership. A king may be she spouse of a female monarch called a queen, but that is rare.

Kings of the Alliance

Kings are the main leaders of the Alliance of Lordaeron, Quel'Thalas, Khaz Modan, Kingdom of Azeroth (now Stormwind) and other kingdoms. Every member of the House of Wrynn was or is a king. They reign over the human, elven and dwarfen kingdoms from the Troll Wars to the Third War. The last true king of Lordaeron was betrayed and murdered by his own son. Now with the creation of the Grand Alliance, Varian Wrynn, son of Llane occupies this post.

Kings of the Horde

The Horde does not typically call their leaders kings, even if they are male monarchs. The title is largely historical from a group that joined the Horde and used that title previously.

The leader of the Horde is called Warchief, and races such as the tauren and trolls use chief or chieftain as their titles. "Regent Lord" is the blood elven regal title, while the goblins are ruled by a slew of trade princes.
