− | The '''Eastern Kingdoms''' are the eastern continents on the world of Azeroth.<ref>[[Lands of Conflict]], 11, 66, 77, 78, 176, 178.</ref>. The Eastern Kingdoms is made up from a group of smaller continents (Azeroth, Khaz Modan and Lordaeron) formed from the original continent of [[Kalimdor]] following the [[Great Sundering]]. The Eastern Kingdoms lie to the east of the [[Great Sea]] and to the west of the [[Forbidding Sea]]. The central part of the Eastern Kingdoms is dominated by the [[Khaz Mountains]] and the [[Redridge Mountains]]. Both cover several zones. The Eastern Kingdom's western counterpart is the continent of [[Kalimdor]]. |

− | [[Quel'Thalas]] seems to make up a fourth continent in some maps. Most of the time, it appears that the Eastern Kingdoms are divided into only three continents, as Quel'Thalas is shown as part of northern Lordaeron. |
