They are already divided in Angmar and Gundabad, and by renaming "Gundabad" to "Orcs of the Misty Mountains", it would unite all the tribes around the Misties together in a more "formal" way (because they're all pretty much the same orcs without many distinctions, anyway).

But I still think there could be another Orc "faction", well, not really a "faction". Did you ever play the "The Last Days" mod? It has savage (or was it tribal? Maybe wild?) orcs, and they just roam around killing and pillaging as they see fit. They aren't affiliated to any faction (they are even attacked by Mordor and the other bad guys too) and because of that, they're mostly equipped with prehistoric-like weapons. Factionless orcs like those would be a nice addition. To be honest, these orcs are factionless indeed. But people like to see distinction so they know who they are fighting exactly. So I thought "from the north" would just make them look random, just living in the north without any obligations, except raiding out of free will. Well, they still have leaders like the Great Goblin, Bolg and Azog. I believe they enjoy a bit more freedom than those orcs in Mordor, but I doubt they don't have any obligations to their leads. Because as we can see from the Orc "society", the stronger one leads and the rest follow, unless someone stronger cuts off the head from the previous strong guy.
