Gilnean Exodus

The Gilnean Exodus is the academic term for the period of upheaval and displacement suffered by the bulk of the people of the Gilnean Peninsula early in the Fourth War. Fleeing an attempted genocide by the Forsaken, the Gilnean peoples were evacuated; most by Kaldorei ships, a smaller number on the remnants of the Kingdom's own navy. It is one of the most defining moments in Gilnean history and saw much of their culture dispersed throughout the rest of the Grand Alliance and the readmission of the Kingdom into its fold. Accordingly, it is one of the most common themes in recent Gilnean literature and art.
