Kalimdor is a continent of Azeroth. It located to the west of the Eastern Kingdoms and southwest of Northrend. Kalimdor is the home of the Tauren, Trolls, Orcs, Night Elves and Draenei. Kalimdor can be divided into three major regions: North Kalimdor, Central Kalimdor, and South Kalimdor. Kalimdor was primarily the domain of the Night Elves. Since the War of the Ancients, they have given away part of their dominion to the Tauren, and their allies (the Trolls and Orcs). The Draenei have just arrived to the continent. The name Kalimdor means "Land of Eternal Starlight" in Titan and Darnassian.
