Dwarves in particular as they share the order view that the Lords Alliance does generally as a race.   The Harpers and Emerald Enclave would be a natural fit for the more rural/country type races. Gnomes, Elves etc   Halfling of course in the realms tend to live alongside others sometimes in the big cities. THey can be anything they want to be!

They even idealize an elven empire   The Emerald Enclave were an organization of druids and other nature based on the island of Ilighôn that has existed for over a millenium. [1] Founded in 374 DR, [2] the Enclave's initial goal was to protect the interests and resources of nature within the Vilhon Reach in the face of despoilers of nature. The actions of the Enclave have influenced the lives of the high and low, its members avoiding good and evil to focus on the needs of the natural world and resist the growing influence of humankind. Despite their primary goal of preserving nature, members were not direct opponents of progress; they preferred instead to work with civilized folk to promote the health of the natural world without resorting to acts of violence. This is druid/ranger cnetric, 2 class favored by wood elf   Zhentarim is about gather power to achieve your personnal goal, this sound like any kind of race Lord Alliacne is about protecting your land, which also a goal shared with most race (except race without homeland) Order of the guantlet is about upholding honor and justice, which is cleric/paladin centric, without race specifics
