The war is over, and while both sides have lost much against the Burning Legion, the alliance have lost more.
Their precious Night Elf allies sacrificed their Tree of Eternity to destroy the Burning Legion's great leaders...but they gave up their immortality to do it. Now they are as mortal as the rest of us.
Mannoroth the Destructor, the foul demon who corrupted the orcs is now dead, and the bloodlust is gone. Warchief Thrall has taken over the Orc clans, brought them together as one and settled on the Western Continent of Kalimdor. Thrall has named the land Durotar after is father, and the capital city Ogrimmar.
Settled in the same area is a tribe of Darkspear Trolls who have allied themselves with the Horde...to a certain degree. Trolls at the end of the day are generally only in it for the money or a sense of adventure. The only time individual tribes get together to agree on anything is once every six years on the island of Zandalar. There, King Rastakhan meets with the Troll leaders to sort out any issues that affect the entire troll race.
As for the rest of the Horde, you've got the Tauren. Native to the continent of Kalimdor these "gentle giants" quickly allied themselves with the new more spiritual orcs. Their leader is Cairne Bloodhoof and have settled in the gorgeous mountain valley region of Mulgore. Their captial city is Thunderbluff.
The Blood Elves - former High Elves who have had their fill of their former Alliance allies - have also joined with us, mostly thanks to their former Hero, Sylvanas Windrunner now leader of the Forsaken. Regent Lor'themar Theron is currently in charge of the Blood Elves in their capital of Silvermoon City in the region of Quel'thalas.
Lastly, as I mentioned before there are the Forsaken. Now, we all know about the Scourge. Nastly undead buggers that ripped their way through the Human and High Elf empires. Led by Arthas a former human prince but now the Lich King, they decimated the former human capital of Lordaeron and the High Elf region of Quel'Thalas. Arthas toyed with the famous High Elf ranger Sylvanas Windrunner by turning her into a banshee. She returned the favour by regaining her body and her free will, taking with her thousands of other Undead, them too with their minds now intact. Instead of creating a toy, Arthas created a new race, The Forsaken, who are hell-bent at destroying the Scourge. They have the ability to create more Forsaken from the Undead that still prowl the lands. The Forsaken have settled in the ruins of the former human captial of Lordaeron. Underneath they have excavated much of the structure to create their own capital known as The Undercity.

Trolls in it for the money! Such nonsense! Why are people insisting on listening to Alliance propaganda? Surely you understand that after such vicious wars, the continent is flooded with cripples, orphans and widows. That trolls are noble enough to raise money to send home to look after such unfortunates is a demonstration of our compassion, not of greed.
And no, you can't see the charities. Too risky...the psychos who crippled/widowed/orphaned them are still out there; we have to keep these unfortunates hidden for their own protection. But don't worry, I assure you the money is being well spent.
Sincerely, Jo-Mo.
