Capital cities are typically the main headquarters of each race. They are the largest cities of each race, where their leaders reside.
Major Capitals
These are large cities that serve as the main cultural, political and economical center of each of the playable races. Shattrath City is not the capital of any of the playable races, but might be considered the capital of the united forced opposing the Burning Legion in Outland.
Former Capitals
This is a list of cities that used to be the capitals of a certain race or faction. The factions, races and location names listed to reflect the capital's situation at the time of its golden age. Also, some factions might not have a template to mark them, as they were formed before the days of the Alliance and Horde. Factions marked with a * were hostile to all playable races. If they are still inhabited by a sizable amount of their original owners, they are not on this list, but in the next one.
Minor Capitals
This is a list of minor capitals of factions with a measured reputation or have their home in an instance. If a ^ is marked before a faction or race name, they were the original owners of the city. All information here is current.
