Hi, I'm starting classic today on the Atreya server, what faction should I choose? Is there any benefit to picking one over the other? Which faction is more populated, and more likely to be able to group up?

You can find parties and legions on both sides. Depending on your preferred language it might be easier to find a suitable legion though. Furthermore, they character design is a bit different and some skills differ, so depending on the class the faction based skill might be better or worse (however, there'll be changes in the future if I remember correctly). So basically you can just choose whatever you like.
