  1. Gilneas is ruled by House of Greymane. As Gilneas lies in ruins, the nobility is surely broken as well. From an IC perspective, a gilnean noble could probably move from ruined Gilneas to Stormwind and win the King's favour with his skills and become a noble in Stormwind as well, but it would take some good deeds. You ask about other ruling systems: orcs had clans but with the formation of the New Horde this clan system kinda fell. Tauren also has a clan/tribe system but I'm not sure. Blood Elven aristocracy is formed by the Magisters. About other races I am oblivious to any form of playable political content.
  2. The dwarves has a Senate. Bronzebeards and Dark Irons has their own senatorial organizations. The dwarven senate oversees the dwarven lands much like the human nobles, attending mostly to civilian matters and economic development. As for Draenei, I suspect the Exarchs would represent some sort of ruling body? I'm not sure, perhaps that's just another WoD addition. MILITARY EXPANSION OF THE ALLIANCE AND HORDE A checklist containing military ranks of the major factions for Staff usage. The Grand Alliance's Ranking Structure These are the military ranks that compose the structure of the Alliance military in most of its composition: Enlisted Ranks: Private: the entry rank a citizen of the Alliance attains when joining the military, Privates make up the frontlines of the Alliance armies. Corporal: to rise to this rank, a Private must either have served without judicial prejudice for a whole year, or he must have accomplished some notable feat on the field. Corporals are seen as models of military discipline, etiquette and duty to the lower step of the chain. They are awarded command over a Team in operations. Sergeant: at the rank of Sergeant a soldier exercises their first abilities in charge of fellow men on a more specific scale, leading small distinct operations in the field in charge of a Squad. Sergeants are also responsible for discipline in the camp or barracks, as well as they’re employed to train new recruits. Master Sergeant: a senior enlisted non-commissioned officer, the Master Sergeant’s squad contains an additional team, making them capable of more complex missions with a higher level of trust which also puts them in the planning tables by an officer’s side. Sergeant Major: the most senior non-commissioned officer, Sergeant Majors are seasoned enlisted men and women who earned their way up through combat and understand leadership in the thick of action. Their advice is highly valued in a planning board. Their squad is composed of an additional team. Commissioned Officer Ranks: Knight: not always seasoned veterans coming from the bloodied field of battle, Knights are most times humans of noble birth ushered into the ranks of knighthood by privilege after long tutoring by older knights. Regardless, those that do ascend to knighthood by merit of battle are certainly a step above the common soldier. They lead Sections in battle. Knight-Lieutenant: a Knight that distinguishes himself in battle regardless of origins attains the rank of Knight-Lieutenant in which he becomes Platoon officers and adjutants to higher ranking officers in the chain. Knight-Captain: senior knights with considerable experience both as fighters and tacticians, Knight-Captains are respected officers and Company commanders, leading the main force of armies in the field of battle. Knight-Champion: the most distinguished knighthood rank, these are not always just officers but also beacons of inspiration to the rank and file, highly decorated veterans and fierce combatants of the Alliance. When awarded actual command they lead full Companies. General Officer Ranks: Lieutenant Commander: these officers serve as executive officers to a full Commander and lead Battalions in the field of battle, providing their tactical expertise to their superior officer and overseeing larger battles more closely. Commander: some of the most distinguished leaders rise to the rank of Commander and lead Regiments in the field of battle, serving as the forefront of the Alliance’s might in the large-scale conflicts. Marshal: a senior officer with large experience, extensive strategic knowledge to bring to the table and many outstanding achievements in the name of the Alliance, Marshals often lead entire operations or may also serve as military governors to whole regions, commanding the Brigades in the field. Field Marshal: one step above Marshals, the Field Marshals command the Divisions and represent the cream of the Alliance’s military leadership, having achieved a great victory in the name of the Alliance to be awarded with this illustrious rank. Grand Marshal: this rank is only granted to the most distinguished, illustrious champions of the Alliance during times of war and strife and are second only to the High King in the Alliance’s military matters on a specific war theatre, such as https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Grand_Marshal_Tremblade?so=search in Ashran. The New Horde's Ranking System Enlisted: Scout: members of the Horde with increased expertise, most times hunters, headhunters, trappers and rogues, the Scouts have the duty of providing intel about the field to the troops. Grunt: the frontlines are formed by the mighty warriors of the Horde, the Grunt being the basic unit of the army. Often orcish fighters, but not limited to orcs alone. Non-Commissioned Officers: Sergeant: the first leadership role a soldier of the Horde attains, they are Team leaders and perform basic duties as well as specific combat assignments, but the main priority of the Horde Sergeants are making Grunts out of citizens. Senior Sergeant: an upper grade of the regular Sergeant, this is when a soldier achieves command over a proper smaller Squad. These are often fierce warriors that proved themselves under pressure in battle, both in strength and tactical approach. First Sergeant: the most senior grade of Sergeant, the First Sergeants are seasoned warriors granted two additional teams to their Squad and often serve as adjutants to established officers, providing valuable combat experience advice to their superiors. Commissioned Officer Ranks: Stone Guard: a proven warrior and somewhat of a leader, Stone Guards achieve their status as officers through hardships and the overcoming of them. Different from the humans, a Stone Guard is always picked amongst proven combatants rather than wellborn people. They lead Sections in the field. Blood Guard: a step above the Stone Guard, the Blood Guards (as the name suggests) are christened by the blood of many foes slain in battle while also keeping most if not all of his warriors alive while at it through some degree of tactical expertise. They are Platoon officers but given their proven toughness they can become guardians to more distinguished officers such as Champions or Generals. Legionnaire: to achieve this rank, a warrior must have proven his exceptional skill in battle as well as his capacity to lead his warriors to victory in the name of the Horde more than a few times not only by example or rallying cries, but proper strategy and cunning. They lead small Companies in the field. Centurion: more often than not a Legionnaire who has proven his worth repeatedly, the Centurion is the seasoned version of the Legionnaire, forged in the fires of the field of battle under increased pressure and most times hard decision making in the thick of it - hence they are awarded command over a full Company. Champion: not always a career officer, not always an expert commander, not always bloodied frenzied warriors, sometimes all of those or some of them, Champions are the embodiment of the Horde’s values and what the faction stands for, based mostly on orcish traditions of strength and honor. Most times they serve as inspirational beacons in the field of battle instead of commanders, but if they are employed to command they lead only a Warband; though the units composing such warband are some of the most seasoned soldiers the Horde has to offer. General Officer Ranks: Lieutenant General: the fiercest warriors and commanders of the Horde are brought to the highest echelon of the military at the second grade of General, serving as executive officers, adjutants and second in command to a fully fledged General, leading the Cohorts. General: easily one of the most distinguished places a soldier of the Horde can reach, the Generals are master tacticians, expert strategists and some of the most illustrious combatants the Horde has to offer, providing their extensive military experience and cunning to the betterment of the Horde war machine. They lead Brigades in the field. Warlord: few in number, highly decorated veterans, praised for their mastery of war and strategy as well as their longevity in the service of the Horde with numerous achievements on their record, the Warlords are the embodiment of the Horde’s military might, imposing figures that inspire Grunts and Champions alike to march to the pits of hell for the glory of the Horde. They lead Legions in the field. High Warlord: the peak of the military career for a select few, the High Warlords are soldiers that beyond the regular Warlord, they have guided a military force of the Horde into a great victory against a major foe. Their command is still a Legion but with an additional Brigade. High Overlord: this rank belongs to the foremost commander of the Horde military, currently held by Varok Saurfang.
