How this route is built

A zone is on the Alliance route for a level range when it is a Alliance or contested zone and its level band overlaps that range, so a zone can appear in two neighbouring ranges. Dungeons are listed for both factions by their chart levels. The page names no quests, flight paths or NPCs. 8 Alliance-accessible zones have no level band in the zone data yet and are left out: Alterac Mountains, Searing Gorge, Swamp of Sorrows, Duskwood, Deadwind Pass, Blasted Lands, Moonglade, Silithus.
