History
Even before the Great Sundering of Time, the nation of Pandaria stood strong and couragous, allied with the Night Elfs of Kalimdor. They shared their resources and mystical knowledge, but however, as the night elves' racial obsession with the forces of magic drove them to the brink of madness, the gentle pandaren decided to sever their ties and leave the night elves behind forever.

The pandaren clans, or shao'dins, traveled far across the seas and established crude, but beautiful cities of stone and sturdy bambus reed on an island they named Pandaria.

More recently, the explorer Chen Stormstout ventured to Kalimdor, searching for new ingredients for his ales. He allied with Rexxar and Rokhan, to help with a raid on Theramore Isle. This attack had long shattered the friendships between the Alliance and the Pandaren, but the Pandaren only seek peace and they aim to repair the alliance.
