The Garlean Empire controls the majority of the three continents in Eorzea. Their power centered in the capital of Garlemald. However this is well known to the residents of Eorzea. Fifty years ago Garlemald was nothing more than a remote location, sparsely populated, barely a location on a map of Ilsabard. This is easily reflected within the population of the empire itself. Trueblooded Garleans are vastly outnumbered compared to the masses of faceless mixed bloods, or other races within the machine of the empire of Garlemald. The Garlean nobility hold the power within the capital of Garlemald itself, as a result Garleans are better trained, and better educated than most of the other races. However they are also rarely seen outside of the capital of Garlemald, consisting of only seventy percent of the population within the seat of their empires power.
Garleans shockingly resemble humes. However they stand taller, and occasionally broader, their most interesting distinguishing characteristic is the trademark third eye located upon their forehead.
