Orgrimmar is the capital city of the orcs and trolls in World of Warcraft, and is also considered by most to be the capital city of the Horde. Orgrimmar is located at the northern edge of Durotar on the continent of Kalimdor.
Overview
Orgrimmar serves as the Orc and Troll capital in World of Warcraft. It is one of the larger capital cities in the game. Players can do many things inside Orgrimmar's massive walls, everything from repairing items to learning new skills. Orgrimmar is also where you will find Warchief Thrall,the mighty leader of the Orcs.Backstory
Orgrimmar was founded along with its surrounding area Durotar by Thrall. Originally the city was meant to be a safehaven for the race of Orcs only, but due to the growing threat of the Alliance it now also welcome all races of the Horde faction. The city was named after Orgrim Doomhammer, the previous warchief of the Horde, and the original owner of Thrall's armor and warhammer.Additional Notes
- In the back of Orgrimmar, in the Valley of Honor, there is a gladiator-like arena. It has never been used for anything although it has been there since release. Blizzard has however mentioned it being used in the coming expansion, Wrath of The Lich King.
- Mannoroth's armor and skull can be seen on display outside Thrall's quarters in the Valley of Wisdom.
- Orgrimmar has a rear entrance which is rarely inhabited by players, and only a few weak guards and vendors dwell there. This entrance is often used by Alliance raids on the city, as it also allows the quickest route to Thrall.
