Pre-Third War Conflicts in Kalimdor

Kalimdor is as vast as it is ancient. Although many of its denizens are tribal & not recorders of history, the eternal ancients and the once immortal night elves have witnessed thousands of years of the continent's history. Although small skirmishes are likely lost to memory, the larger & more enduring conflicts remain in some memories of the Sentinel outriders and rare wandering adventurer, scout, or druid who were drawn to the regions.

Tauren/Quilboar/Centaur Conflicts
Contact between Quilboar, Tauren, and Centaur rarely resulted in more than bloodshed & broken bones. Though none of the races hold written histories, stone glyphs, Night Elven stories, oral history along with research done by archaeologists & 'extremely interested parties' provide context of several notably fierce wars & conflicts that took place within the last 10,000 years.

These include (in roughly chronological order):
 * The War of the Emerging Plains: First Tauren/Quilboar war. As the majestic forests that once existed in central Kalimdor begin to disappear, the Tauren & Quilboar fight for control of the remaining forestlands
 * First Reclamation of Mulgore: Tauren war against the Centaur to retake Mulgore, ultimately failing in their goal. Noted for giving rise to the legend of 'Amasth the Impassable', a Tauren brave who held off siege after siege of Centaur attacks before falling, allowing for his tribesmen to escape.
 * The Great Feud: An inter-tribal conflict between Tauren.
 * Blood of the Tomahawk War: First known Quilboar invasion of Mulgore.
 * Krokis Centaur Conquest of the Razorfen: Self-explanatory
 * Genocide of the Krokis Centaur: Self-explanatory
 * Great Totem War: Although Shaman are heeded by all three peoples, this war was noted as the first where Shaman became war leaders & generals on all sides, leading to a catastrophic destruction of the remainder of the forests within the Barrens. It would take centuries for oases to emerge, but the land forever more would be known as 'The Barrens'
 * Blood Moons War: The two moons of Azeroth, the White Lady & Blue Child, both became red for almost a week. This celestial event inspired the Quilboar, Centaur, and Tauren to fight each other, all in belief that the bloody moons symbolized favor for their people. Noted for ending abruptly when the event ended, with the forces of all three sides simply leaving the battlegrounds.

Night Elf Conflict
Night Elves were not immune to wars despite their newfound immortality. Although their policing of Kalimdor allowed for near immediate destruction of hostile cults and magical cabals, many of the early conflicts were unavoidable remnants of the War of the Ancients while later conflicts were results of geographic isolation that allowed enemies to build up forces.

These include (in roughly chronological order):
 * Sandfury War: An early war between the Sandfury Empire, the Highborne Empire, and Night Elven rebels.
 * War of the Ancients
 * War of the Satyr: Destruction of the organized satyr society that had been created at the end of the War of the Ancients. Notable for the first and only use of the Pack Form until millenia later.
 * War of the Harpies: The Harpies invade Hyjal for access to the new Well at the World Tree. They are ultimately pushed off of Hyjal & out of Ashenvale entirely.
