A lot of people love the lore in WoW, but aren’t too familiar with what happened in Warcraft III and Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne, so this article will go over what happened during that time period. I’ve gotten a few requests to make this article mostly because of the World of Warcraft intro cinematic: The voice says “Four years have passed since the mortal races stood united against the Burning Legion…. the tenuous pact between the Horde and Alliance has all but evaporated”, and curiosity for what came before. Sit back, grab a drink, because if you missed Warcraft III and the expansion, you’ve got a lot to catch up on.
