History

The Alliance is a powerful alliance between different factions, united by the same choice of honor, courage and peace. The main principle of this conglomerate comes from the desire to create a peaceful world free from unrest and strife.
The human kingdom of Stormwind, under King Varian Wrynn, is an important cornerstone of the Alliance's strength. Faced with the aftermath of the First Human-Orc War, Stormwind's rebirth is driven by a quest for order and justice. Stormwind is inspired by its architectural grandeur and is a beacon of hope for the Alliance. Next up are the mystical night elves of Kalimdor with the calm and peaceful forests of Nordrasil. With an ancient civilization, they reiterate the importance of respecting nature while showing great hostility to any disturbance of their sacred land. They joined the Alliance after the third Burning Legion invasion.
Forming a pact with the Stormwind Kingdom, the dwarves of Ironforge contribute their magnificent stone and metalworking vessels to the Pact. Their beautiful city in the mountains shows their strength and iron will. Gnomeregan dwarves, though small in size, play an important role in the Pact. Their mind-boggling inventions and unparalleled knowledge of technology and magic proved to be an asset. After losing the city to a deadly radiation leak, the Alliance offered them refuge in Ironforge and welcomed them.
Eventually, the draenei hid in Azeroth after fleeing Outland to escape the Burning Legion. As recent additions to the Pact, they bring their advanced technology and powerful light-based magic with them. Over the centuries, the leaders of the Alliance have prioritized peace and prosperity. However, they remain ready to stand up to those who threaten their values and security. The covenant embodies the spirit of unity in diversity and symbolizes a beacon of hope in turbulent times.

Geography

One of the two main political factions in the World of Warcraft universe, the Alliance controls several different territories, each with its own unique geography. One of the main territories is the human kingdom of Stormwind, a strong and sprawling human city in the southern part of the Eastern Kingdom. It consists of large medieval-style buildings and a huge castle surrounded by lush forests and fresh rivers.
To the north of Stormwind lies Ironforge, an iconic dwarven city carved into the Dun Morogh mountain region. The terrain here is mostly snow and ice, with high peaks reaching for the snowy sky. The vast, peaceful forests of Teldrasil and the breathtaking heights of Mount Hyjal are what the night elves call home. These areas feature giant ancient trees touching the night sky and vibrant, magical forests filled with mystical creatures.
The draenei of the Alliance established their capital in the floating city of Exodar on the island of Azuremyst. The landscape here is a mix of misty valleys, stunning mushrooms and crystalline forests, giving it an ethereal feel.
Each district of the Alliance is a rich and diverse world, from snow-capped mountains, lush forests to sparkling rivers that reflect the culture and resilience of its inhabitants. This interplay of different landscapes and cultures sets the Alliance territories apart and invites adventure at every turn.
