Yep. It wasn't until they discovered ceureleum and developed magitek that they became a force to be reckoned with.
the garlean ancestors didnt have the ability to use magic therefor the neighboring nations abused and took advantage of them and drove them out of their furtile lands for their own needs forcing the people north into the frozen wastelands of Ilsabard where the garlean people suffered many hardships, sometime during that era the ascians showed up and pretending to be true garleans emet-selch "discovered" ceruleum and thus was garland transformed into the mighty garlean empire
