Factions that players can earn reputation with have been a part of World of Warcraft since the very beginning. From the early days of needing to be Exalted to get attuned to Naxxramas for free to the renown system introduced in Shadowlands, earning reputation has been an important part of progressing your character and unlocking a wide variety of rewards, regardless of whether you are a hardcore or casual player.
Renown returns once again in The War Within, and those who played Dragonflight will already know what to expect. Once you've arrived on the Isle of Dorn, it isn't long before you encounter the first faction in Khaz Algar known as the Council of Dornogal.
World of Warcraft: The War Within Keeping a Time-Saving Feature for Alts
World of Warcraft uses a time-saving quality-of-life feature from Shadowlands in The War Within that makes playing multiple characters much better.
All Council of Dornogal Ranks and Rewards

How to Improve Renown With Council of Dornogal
While you do get reputation from completing certain campaign quests, the majority of the grind for renown takes place after you have reached Level 80. First, you will want to make sure that you have completed the campaign and reached Level 80. Doing so unlocks world quests for Kaz Algar and a weekly dungeon quest in Dornogal.
Killing rare enemies can grant you reputation as well, so keep an eye out for them.
Certain world quests will provide small (but steady) increases to your reputation with the Council of Dornogal while the daily dungeon quest will allow you to get 1,500 reputation with a faction of your choosing. The best way to reliably improve your Renown with Council fo Dornogal is to do the weekly dungeon quest every day while also doing any active world quests that reward reputation.
