Like the Horde, the Alliance is striving to rebuild their own societies. The Humans, Dwarves and Night Elves strive to protect their last great cities of Stormwind, Ironforge, and Darnassus from any who seek to destroy them. The Gnomes assist their old allies any way they can while at the same time, they continue to strategize plans in attempts to reclaim their once great city of Gnomeregan. The Dwarves, formerly miners, have recently become dedicated to archaeology in the hopes of discovering more about their long lost heritage. The Draenei, chased away from their lands by the Burning Legion, have crash landed on the Azuremyst Isles, where they now live and are now determined to protect. The Alliance, although at a truce with the Horde, have been in dispute all over Azeroth, each side doing what they feel is best for their own people. At the same time, both sides are at war with the Scourge in an attempt to bring peace to Azeroth and protect it from the evil and corruption that once filled it.
