Stormwind is the last remaining human kingdom in the Alliance. It had been rebuilt and repopulated after the Second War, having been destroyed at the end of the First War. Its citizens have seen much over the years due to relentless Horde aggression. This has led to an increasingly martial society with an emphasis in service to the Stormwind Army or various supporting organisations, such as the Church of the Holy Light.
The kingdom has become ever more unstable in recent years due to increased taxation to support war efforts and a lack of protection for the common man while the Army is always elsewhere.

The Kingdom of Stromgarde had stood for ages. It is the seat of the first human empire and has played a major role in countless events. It proudly joined the Alliance at its creation during the Second War and even withstood the undead at the start of the Third War, but then King Thoras Trollbane died mysteriously. Pressure mounted from the Syndicate, the Boulderfist ogres, and the Witherbark tribe, chipping away at the kingdom until its collapse; Prince Galen Trollbane did not have the skill to hold together what remained.
The League was formed by the survivors who stayed. Though nominally led by the Prince from the remains of Stromgarde Keep, in reality it is led by Sir Maximus Adams from Refuge Point. It struggles against the Forsaken Defilers, who seek to annex the territory for the Forsaken Kingdom of Lordaeron. The League's members are bound by honour to stay within the Highlands until the kingdom is recovered.[1]
