I feel like a idiot for missing this....
Also, considering that your criteria was that of "how long they've been in the faction", they are on equal footing with Stormwind and Ironforge =D.
You have read Tides of Darkness, right?I don't get your point.

They didn't expressly mention gnomes that I can think of, but they were in Warcraft 2, and I know that Beyond the Dark Portal mentioned the Gnomes building the Deeprun Tram, so I'm certain that they did in fact join the Alliance in the Second War.

Aye, only reason they weren't in the 3rd War was because of the trogg invasion and the whole 'irraditating our own city thing'.

If the gnomes joined the same time as the Ironforge dwarfs, which was at the end of the war, and Stormwind joined at the same time the Alliance was created, then Stormwind not on equal footing with Gnomeregan.
How does that work? Most of the Stormwind refugees didn't fight as much as the 7 Kingdoms after all. We also don't know how far the gnomish inventions were spread across the continents, they weren't mentioned much after all. And it wasn't really at the end, it just seemed like that in Tides of Darkness because they were gearing up for the big battle; they don't give a very definite time passing after all.

Sir Lothar, in charge of the scattered armies of Azeroth since the death of King Llane, has led his people across the Great Sea to the shores of Lordaeron. By enlisting the armies of Lordaeron, and making new allies in the Elves and Dwarves, a mighty force known as the Alliance has been forged. Now, the last of the once great armies of Azeroth seek retribution for the loss of their homeland.No, you play as the Alliance, which is the survivors of Stormwind/Azeroth, Lordareon, Stromguarde, Alterac, Gilneas, Dalaran and Kul'Tiras, plus the Elves and Dwarves, with the Gnomes as support groups. And seeing as Lothar is the last member of the Arathor line... he's fighting for everyone, not just Stormwind and his king.
Gnomish Flying Machine
The Gnomes of Khaz Modan have long offset their lack of physical strength with ingenuity and daring. As members of the Alliance, they have continued to display their talents by inventing and piloting the unbelievable Flying Machine. Although having no armaments, these awkward contraptions can be used to survey vast areas of terrain, and detecting the otherwise hidden movements of underwater units (as all flying units can), making them invaluable for discovering the movements of the Horde.
Gnomish Submarine
The resourceful Gnomish Inventors have designed an amazing craft known as the Submarine. This watertight vessel can submerge beneath the waves and surreptitiously keep watch on enemy forces above the surface. The Gnomish Submarine is visible only to Towers, aerial forces, and other vessels that move beneath the waves. Using cunning and craft to carry out surprise attacks on more powerful enemies makes the Submarine an invaluable part of the Lordaeron armada. They may not have fought hand to hand, but with their technology they sure did help.

If you actually play Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness, the chart at the end clearly says that you are playing as the Kingdom of Azeroth.Heh, a kingdom in exile, surviving thanks to the assistance of the Northren Kingdoms.

And you're playing as Turalyon, as well, I believe. And he's from Lordaeron.

The gnomish creations were likely at the end of the war, which would mean Stormwind was there before them.Heh, should have added that in up there; you get control of the gnomish inventions fairly early in the game.... so.... yeah.
Turalyon was Beyond the Dark Portal, as Lothar was dead at that point in the actual games.
