Ok, Maybe I was the only one who noticed this but, Alliance seems to never be able to win. The races that is.
Humans-
The humans were once high and mighty in the city of Lordaeron. The city was conquered and torn to ruin. The humans were then forced to flee and take residence in the city of SW.
Gnomes-
They were forced out of the Hi-Tech city of Gnomergan. They took refuge in Ironforge but, to this day Gnomergan is still under the control of freakin level 30 elite mobs. What level are we now? 70?
Night Elves- I don't know much about them. BUt, here's an interesting topic that explains it pretty well.
The night elves were the first race to arise on Azeroth. More than ten thousand years ago a tribe of humanoids settled on the shores of the Well of Eternity. The Well's influence changed them fundamentally, but most importantly gave them the ability to use magic. After many years a schism occurred between the so-called Highborn, who were supported by the queen and were addicted to magic, and the rest of the population. An elf named Malfurion then discovered that the corrupted titan Sargeras and his Burning Legion were using the well to enter into the world, and probably destroy it. Malfurion, his lover Tyrande and the demigod Cenarius raced to the well to try and destroy it. After a battle with the Highborn forces, they succeeded. The cataclysm not only destroyed the Well, but also most of the rest of the continent, resulting in a vast ocean separating the continents today.
The remainder of the Highborn were exiled, and sailed over the sea to Lordaeron where they named themselves High Elves. Later it was discovered that Malfurion's brother Illidan managed to create a second Well of Eternity, so to stop another disaster a massive World Tree, Nordrassil, was planted over it. It gave the night elves several new abilities, for instance making them immortal. For the next ten thousand years, the survivors lived peacefully, until the second invasion of the Burning Legion. The races of Azeroth, both Horde and Alliance fought the Legion at the peak of Hyjal, until the elves managed to unleash the primal fury of Nordrassil killing the demon lord Archimonde and defeating the Burning Legion. Since then the night elves have lost many of their abilities, and have planted a new World Tree called Teldrassil to try and recover them.
Draenei-
Didn't know what to say but, we all know that they were shot down after trying to flee whatever city.
Dwarves-
This is where I was most stumped. I know that they were forced to go to Ironforge but, I don't know why. If someone can help me here that would be great.
Well, that's the end I just thought this was kinda funny.
