"The Horde of Lordaeron (Forsaken and blood elves) are closely allied with each other, due to being former allies and having both been betrayed by the Alliance in some capacity. This has alwasy been reflected in-game, even in their starting reputations.

I take issue with this statement. The Forsaken have never been betrayed by the Alliance. Quite the opposite in fact, in WC3 it is them who betray Garithos and his men. Yeah, Garithos was a massive jerk but he still held up his end of the bargain, and he got backstabbed for it.

As for the Blood Elves, the faction of Blood Elves that is part of the Horde was never "betrayed" by the Alliance. It is Kael'thas and his men who suffered under Garithos, and the Horde is perfectly happy to kill them alongside the Alliance in Outland.

As for the Alliances unity, I think it's quite strong, as reflected in Northrend. Every Alliance member race is there in force, united under Stormwind.
