Also where each race comes from differs.
Miqote are most known from coming from Meracydia which is to the south.
Elezen and Lalafell are where modern Eoreza is like Ul'Dah or Gridania, so around the middle, with some Lalafell living in the southern island region.
Roegyadan are from northern part of the world where they mostly just sailed around.
Viera we know basically show up on either far east (Dalmasca & Othard) or far west (Xak Tural)
Au'ra we know are from the far east, mostly the steppes and ruby sea.
Hrothgar are like the Viera, they are either far east (Bozja) or far west (Yak Tural).
Hyur are also believed to have come from the east, such as Ala Mhigo and Othard.
Which the Hrothgar and Viera interest me as it makes me wonder if Tural is actually secretly close to Othard and that if we were to take the world map and make it a globe, that maybe through naturally forming landbridges in past eras, you had Viera and Hrothgar that traveled either west or east. As we also don't think about it, but seeing certain Hyur tribes out in the far western part of the world of Tural is actually kind of odd if they all lived to the east and there was no Hyur in say, Black Shroud, which was to the west, and it was originally only a place that Elezen lived beforehand. Such as the Whalaqee tribe hyurs in Tural. Which still rolling with the idea that there was natural land bridges in prior eras, such as ones that connected Othard to Tural, it would explain how Hyur ended up in the Far Western part of the world.
EDIT: Also if its not landbridges, that only leaves really one option. That ancient roegydan ferried hyur, viera, and hrothgar east from othard to tural. Assuming that is, again, that the world is a globe. Although that leaves a bit of potential cosmic funniness in that means the treacherous waters around Tural were just to the western side, while the eastern side was safer by comparison.
