Over one thousand years ago, the city-state of '''Kul Tiras''' was founded upon a large island west of [[Khaz Modan]] and in between [[Stormwind (kingdom)|Stormwind]] and [[Lordaeron]]. Kul Tiras developed a thriving economy based on fishing and exports. Over the years mighty fleets of merchant vessels were built and they sailed throughout the seas in search of exotic goods to trade and sell.

Over the many years the great [[nation]] of Kul Tiras thrived on exports of seafood, livestock, lumber, grain, gold, and other artifacts.

Always possessing a heavily armed and extremely powerful fleet, Kul Tiras only used their war vessels to protect shipping passages between the mainland and the island. Upon the Second War, their war fleets were unleashed as Grand Admiral [[Daelin Proudmoore]] entered Kul Tiras into the [[Alliance]] and took a vow to help his old friend, Sir [[Anduin Lothar]]. Despite the first sea battle against the orcish war fleet which resulted in the destruction of the human war ships, the armada of Kul Tiras proved to be a valuable asset of the Alliance war effort. Throughout the war Grand Admiral Daelin Proudmoore proved to be one of the staunchest supporters of the Alliance. Even though the fleets had triumphed in the Second War, the Horde ships devastated the fleet and it never has recovered since. For this, the people of Kul Tiras hold a dire hatred for the orcs.{{Citation needed}}<!-- Cited as LoC - but what page? -->

For reasons unknown to the people of Kul Tiras, [[Jaina Proudmoore]], a powerful sorceress and daughter to dear Grand Admiral Daelin Proudmoore, sailed to west [[Kalimdor]] and took half of the remaining fleet with her.

[[File:Tiras.jpg|thumb|Kul Tiras tabard]]
  +
  +
The people of Kul Tiras are wealthy, especially compared to the ravaged northern lands, and proud of their nation. They wear traditional green and fly flags with Kul Tirasā€™s anchor emblem. Like [[Hillsbrad]]ā€™s citizens, Kul Tirasā€™s people celebrate [[Hordefall]] every year. They hate the Scourge for wiping out the rest of their continent; they hate naga, murlocs and pirates for sinking their ships and stealing their resources; and they hate orcs for decimating their fleets in the Second War. They are staunch members of the Alliance and friends of [[Ironforge]].
  +
  +
The citizens of Kul Tiras possess a deep-seated anxiety. Their eyes dart about. Often looking to the west, where the greatest leaders of Kul Tiras and many of their warriors vanished, they wonder if they will ever again see their missing families. They are glad to have a Proudmoore as their leader, but all know that Tandred is not the man his father was.
  +
  +
Soldiers of Kul Tiras bearing its [[tabard]] include [[Lieutenant Benedict]], [[Watch Commander Zalaphil]], [[Kul Tiras Marine]]s, and [[Kul Tiras Sailor]]s.
  +
  +
Kul Tiras Irregulars and Kul Tiras City Guard are also forces of Kul Tiras.{{Citation needed}}<!-- Cited as CoH - but what page? -->

==Geography==
  +
Kul Tiras is a large island off Khaz Modanā€™s west coast, between Stormwind and Lordaeron. The unsettled areas are covered with rolling hills and sparse evergreen woods. Nearby [[Crestfall]], immediately off the northeast coast, and farther [[Tol Barad]], in the same direction, are also parts of Kul Tiras. Kul Tiras is temperate, though subject to sudden ocean storms. The nation is also very windy, which makes zeppelin rides perilous. Wild game includes few forest creatures such as foxes, squirrels and the occasional black bear. Kul Tirasā€™s shores possess good fishing and provide ample seafood. It is said that Kul Tiras has the best lobster and king crab in all the land.

On the northern coastline of Kul Tiras, lies the remains of what used to be a town with a large amount of immigrants from Khaz Modan.
  +
It was a thriving community until the Third War, as a Scourge army arrived and moved to raid the town. The garrison was far too small to save the city and although [[Duke Falrevere]] was nearby with his fleet, he decided that even if he was able to save the town it would claim too many casualties, so he turned his ships and abandoned Kul Tiras.

===Crestfall===
  +
A large island off Kul Tirasā€™s northeast coast, Crestfall boasts a sizable community of boaters and fishermen. These people do not like strangersā€”some visitors are nearly shot when approaching a town at night on this island. The riflemen are constantly on guard from the naga have been plaguing them recently. Rumors abound that a large [[naga]] force, under a warlord called [[Zethresh]], hides near Crestfallā€™s west shore. Zethresh reputedly seeks to cleanse the ocean and her isles of human encroachment.

===Tiragarde Keep===

The humans of Kul Tiras also have control over the small, ruined fort of Tiragarde Keep in [[Durotar]]. Formerly the citadel of Grand Admiral Daelin Proudmoore during his invasion of Durotar, it is now lorded over by one [[Lieutenant Benedict]] who wishes to continue Daelin's desire to kill all orcs and take Durotar.{{Cata-section}}

Tiragarde Keep and all its inhabitants will be wiped out by tidal waves caused by the cataclysm. The [[Northwatch Expeditionary Force]] led by [[Lieutenant Palliter]] will occupy the ruins of the Keep.
  +
  +
===Tol Barad===
  +
During the second war, it was an island citadel of Stromgarde. Years later, after the second war, the island nation of Kul Tiras claimed the former stronghold and established a magic prison over the ruins of the old fortress. Its secret is kept from many of the world and most are never allowed to visit. Tol Barad was the site of many historic battles in the Second War. Wizards from both [[Dalaran]] and [[Stormwind (kingdom)|Stormwind]] oversee the complex, and prisoners include enemy [[mage]]s, lesser and greater [[demon]]s, [[warlock]]s and undead war criminals. The wizards do not allow anyone near the island and keep the prisonā€™s existence a secret. {{Cata-section}}
  +
The prison, and indeed the island in general, are to become a major site of conflict between the Alliance and the Horde, as well as a major daily quest hub.
  +
  +
===The Sea===
  +
The biggest asset to Kul Tiras is also its greatest danger: the sea. To this end, [[Lieutenant Alverold]] was dispatched to scout the coasts of Kalimdor, but as of the Cataclysm, there has been no sign of his fleet. In Kul Tiras, Murlocs and naga crawl from the sea to torment sailors and fishermen. Pirates roam the waters preying on merchant vessels. Captain [[Dannol Scurvgrin]], a truly vile pirate lord, has ties to the [[Bloodsail Pirates]] of the South Seas and sees Kul Tiras as his next big prize.

==Presence in World of Warcraft==
  +
Kul Tiras played a major part in the events of the Second and Third Wars (that is, [[Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness]] and [[Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos]]). However, according to the official [[World of Warcraft]] map, Kul Tiras is strangely missing and does not appear off the shores of Khaz Modan. According to the lore, it is still a thriving (if somewhat diminished) part of the Alliance, and had barely been touched by the [[Scourge]]. Its smaller navy patrols the islands against Naga, pirates and Murlocs, and the capital city of Boralus contains 4,000 people.
  +
  +
In the RPG book [[Lands of Conflict]], and in a map in [[Lands of Mystery]], Kul Tiras still appears on the map. For a long time Blizzard made no comments as to whether Kul Tiras would appear in World of Warcraft, and its absence remains a mystery to many Lore fans. It is still possible that Kul Tiras will be added in future expansions or content drops, such as [[Gilneas]]. Blizzard recently commented on this in a forum post stating that they although there is the possibility of its inclusion later in the game they had no plans for it at present due to the large amount of story they already want to cover.<ref>http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=112402444&pageNo=1&sid=1#6</ref>
  +
  +
Although Kul Tiras itself does not appear in the game at present, there are Kul Tiran settlements scattered across the eastern coast of Kalimdor, most notably at [[Tiragarde Keep]] in Durotar. The forces of [[Theramore Isle]] and [[Northwatch Hold]] wear the anchor of Kul Tiras on a white field instead of green, reflecting [[Theramore]]'s semi-autonomy from Kul Tiras under [[Jaina Proudmoore]]'s rule. Kul Tiras Marines are briefly mentioned in part of the [[Quest:The Missing Diplomat (13)|Missing Diplomat]] quest chain.

History

Over one thousand years ago, the city-state of Kul Tiras was founded upon a large island west of Khaz Modan and in between Stormwind and Lordaeron. Kul Tiras developed a thriving economy based on fishing and exports. Over the years mighty fleets of merchant vessels were built and they sailed throughout the seas in search of exotic goods to trade and sell.

Over the many years the great nation of Kul Tiras thrived on exports of seafood, livestock, lumber, grain, gold, and other artifacts. Over the years, the kingdom[1][2][3] has developed problems with pirates and raiders on the seas and on the coasts. Murlocs constantly pose a problem to those on the island. These threats, however, have become larger and more serious especially since the Second War all the way to present day.

Always possessing a heavily armed and extremely powerful fleet, Kul Tiras only used their war vessels to protect shipping passages between the mainland and the island. Upon the Second War, their war fleets were unleashed as Grand Admiral Daelin Proudmoore entered Kul Tiras into the Alliance and took a vow to help his old friend, Sir Anduin Lothar. Despite the first sea battle against the orcish war fleet which resulted in the destruction of the human war ships, the armada of Kul Tiras proved to be a valuable asset of the Alliance war effort. Throughout the war Grand Admiral Daelin Proudmoore proved to be one of the staunchest supporters of the Alliance. Even though the fleets had triumphed in the Second War, the Horde ships devastated the fleet and it never has recovered since. For this, the people of Kul Tiras hold a dire hatred for the orcs.[citation needed] 

Several years after, the Third War erupted. Kul Tiras sent its fleets against the undead Scourge but was able to do very little. Most of the ships were destroyed, heavily damaged, or retreated back to Kul Tiras.[citation needed] 

For reasons unknown to the people of Kul Tiras, Jaina Proudmoore, a powerful sorceress and daughter to dear Grand Admiral Daelin Proudmoore, sailed to west Kalimdor and took half of the remaining fleet with her. Several months later, the Grand Admiral, figuring out that he could not prevent Lordaeronā€™s fall and deciding that his daughter may require help in the western lands, took the remaining ships and sailed to meet her. Neither of the Proudmoores have returned nor has any word come back from Kalimdor. (Very unusual, since the Horde must maintain contact with the Forsaken and the Night Elves have been seen in the Eastern Kingdoms ā€” and certainly Jaina would have sent some word back to Kul Tiras.)[citation needed] 

In the absence of his father, Admiral Tandred Proudmoore is now the acting leader of Kul Tiras. In the four years since Daelin Proudmooreā€™s departure, Tandred has built the Kul Tiras fleet back up, but it does not compare to the once grand fleets of years past.

People and Culture

Tiras

Kul Tiras tabard

The people of Kul Tiras are wealthy, especially compared to the ravaged northern lands, and proud of their nation. They wear traditional green and fly flags with Kul Tirasā€™s anchor emblem. Like Hillsbradā€™s citizens, Kul Tirasā€™s people celebrate Hordefall every year. They hate the Scourge for wiping out the rest of their continent; they hate naga, murlocs and pirates for sinking their ships and stealing their resources; and they hate orcs for decimating their fleets in the Second War. They are staunch members of the Alliance and friends of Ironforge.

The citizens of Kul Tiras possess a deep-seated anxiety. Their eyes dart about. Often looking to the west, where the greatest leaders of Kul Tiras and many of their warriors vanished, they wonder if they will ever again see their missing families. They are glad to have a Proudmoore as their leader, but all know that Tandred is not the man his father was.

Soldiers of Kul Tiras bearing its tabard include Lieutenant Benedict, Watch Commander Zalaphil, Kul Tiras Marines, and Kul Tiras Sailors.

Kul Tiras Irregulars and Kul Tiras City Guard are also forces of Kul Tiras.[citation needed] 

Geography

Kul Tiras is a large island off Khaz Modanā€™s west coast, between Stormwind and Lordaeron. The unsettled areas are covered with rolling hills and sparse evergreen woods. Nearby Crestfall, immediately off the northeast coast, and farther Tol Barad, in the same direction, are also parts of Kul Tiras. Kul Tiras is temperate, though subject to sudden ocean storms.

The World of Warcraft expansion Cataclysm could introduce Kul Tiras because the entire world is being revamped. According to Bornakk, Kul Tiras "will not be visible at the start of Cataclysm ā€“ something about tectonic plates shifting it out to sea...." We may yet get to experience Kul Tiras in later patches. [6] The Baradin's Wardens, the Alliance faction on Tol Barad, are known to wear Kul Tiras tabards in an early beta screenshot of the Eastern Earthshrine. [1]

At Blizzcon 2010, Alex Afrasiabi responded to a questioner, "We have to save something for the future patches, not now. We will deal with Kul Tiras in the future." [2]

Notes

Along with Stormwind, Kul Tiras is one of the only human kingdoms that has not been destroyed or has seceded from the Alliance.
