The name can also mean one continent on that planet, so its meaning depends on context.
What is Azeroth?
Azeroth is the world where the story of World of Warcraft takes place. Blizzard’s official description refers to Azeroth as the world beneath the game’s story.
Does Azeroth mean the whole world or just a continent?
It can mean both. Blizzard’s World of Warcraft Classic Manual explains that Azeroth is the name of the Warcraft world and also the name of one of the three continents that make up the Eastern Kingdoms. That continent lies opposite Kalimdor on the world map.
Where does Azeroth fit in the Warcraft universe?
Azeroth is part of a larger cosmic setting in Warcraft lore. Blizzard describes the titans as planet-sized cosmic beings and says they charged the Dragon Aspects with protecting Azeroth in its Dragon Aspects recap.
