Gnoll Horde
Lore
Though normally a disorganized and brutish race, 75 years prior to the First War the gnolls became a major threat to the kingdom of Stormwind. Under the leadership of the cunning packlord Garfang, the gnolls began attacking farmsteads, convoys and villages, until they even began launching full-scale attacks upon Stormwind City itself. The so-called Gnoll War came to a close when King Barathen Wrynn, thereafter known as “the Adamant”, rode with a small party of knights into the Redridge Mountains and killed Garfang. Without a unified leader, the raiders fell to infighting, allowing King Barathen and his soldiers to decimate the gnolls and scatter them across the land.
I am on the fence to choose which faction, but i think Horde whould be more suitable as gnolls have been countlessly attacking and raiding alliance.
And i see it as cannon that it was the Alliance that slayed Hogger in the dungeon.

Furbolg Alliance
Lore
In northern Kalimdor, the furbolgs were old allies of the night elves. The night elves concerned by the once peaceful race’s condition have attempted to help the furbolgs settle their tensions, but the mighty bear-men retreat ever further into their territories and fall deeper into the rage that is overtaking their race, they turned into fearsome new enemies of the night elves.

Mounts

Capital city:
The capital for the fubolg is also not entirely a clear cut concept. Depending on how they join it could shift wildly from one spot to another. Grizzlemaw city is the only currently known city of furbolg in the world, however with the open book that is the Barkskin tribe they could easily have another city beneath Mount Hyjal or hidden away in some small mountain valley.
Or the furbolg could join together to build their own hold or city elsewhere. Or they could join with their allies, the night elves or the draenei and find their home among them.
Language
Ursine

Note, i mostly made this post for fun.
Plus i wish I could upload pictures of the concept idea, so that you get a better picture of what i mean, but I lack trust to do so.
