This vast landmass in western Azeroth was only recently discovered by those of the Eastern Kingdoms. It was Medivh, the Last Guardian of Azeroth, who was able to convince Orc Warchief Thrall to journey beyond the vast Great Sea and seek refuge from the imminent invasion of the Burning Legion therein. Thrall and the Orcs landed in the hostile Dustwallow Marsh, and from there ventured into the depressing Barrens, gathering for themselves a false impression of Kalimdor's true nature; for while a great part of the coast is rocky and barren, and the Barrens themselves little more than a dry savannah, most of northern Kalimdor is covered by lush forests and sweeping plains. Central Kalimdor's landscape is dominated by the Barrens and harsh lands such as Durotar and Dustwallow Marsh. The sandy desert of Tanaris, the lush jungle of the Un'Goro crater, and the massive uncharted wasteland of Silithus make up the greater part of southern Kalimdor.

Northrend from Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos.

The arctic landmass of Northrend is a comparatively small continent, composed mostly of frigid tundra permanently encased in ice. Once home to a small human population in ages past, the coming of Ner'zhul, the Lich King, ended such forever, their place being taken by hordes of Undead.

The most common inhabitants of Northrend are the spider-like creatures known as Nerubians. Once, their subterranean kingdom of Azjol-Nerub was the most prosperous in the harsh land of Northrend, their people thriving in conditions which bested all others. However, the coming of the Lich King was the end of their reign as well. The infusion of his death plague was actually ineffective against live Nerubians, but it still worked on dead ones, turning them into servants of Ner'zhul. Thus, the War of the Spider began. While the spider-people did their best to fight off the Lich King's Undead, the fall and Undead rebirth of Anub'Arak, one of the lords of Azjol-Nerub and its people, spelled an end to their struggles. The Undead Nerubians were incorporated into the vast ranks of Ner'zhul's undead army, called The Scourge, becoming the Crypt Fiends and Crypt Lords. Impressed by the Nerubians efforts in battle and resistance to his plague, the Lich King decided to use Nerubian architectural style for Scourge buildings, so some of their culture still remains in Northrend.
