Other regions

Argus

Argus was the original homeworld of the eredar (and hence the draenei who are physically identical to the original eredar). It was apparently a utopian world whose inhabitants were both vastly intelligent and highly gifted in magic.

Draenor

Draenor was the homeworld of the Orcs and Ogres. In the original timeline, following the fight with the Alliance, Draenor was destroyed and its remnants became Outland. However, in an alternate timeline (which players visit in the expansion pack Warlords of Draenor), Draenor survived and became the home of an organization called the Iron Horde. While this alternate-reality version of Draenor bears a striking resemblance to Outland, it also has several noticeable differences.

Twisting Nether

The Twisting Nether is an extradimensional realm of chaos.

Outland

In the original timeline, Draenor was destroyed and all that remains of it are some floating remnants in the Twisting Nether. Outland is the name used to describe these remnants. It is generally thought of as a continent - while not a continent in the traditional sense, it roughly corresponds to a continent from the original world of Draenor.

Elemental Plane

The Elemental Plane is a completely separate plane of existence which is nevertheless connected to the normal world via portals. The plane is split into four parts corresponding to the four elements - fire, air, earth and water.
