How much time has passed since then and the present time, and were the two tribes targeted at different times due to the Doma sorta poking the hornets nest all on their own?
By tribes, I'm assuming you mean the Raen and the Xaela... as opposed to the numerous different types of Xaela tribes as listed. In which case, I should mention that the Raen actually lived in Doma with the rest of the Domans - so they would've migrated over with the rest of the non-Auri Domans. Yugiri is an example of this.
As for the Xaela themselves, it's not outright stated why they started coming over too. And I'd assume the various Xaelan tribes are pretty scattered over the Othardian steppes, so it would be quite the effort for the Garleans to go after them. That said, if they heard tale of the burning down of an entire city-state (with whom at least one Xaelan tribe was trading with regularly), it could inspire some of them to beat feet out of there. Or it just be left unexplained beyond the mechanical reason of "the race needs two clans to choose from."
Still, that would give you the time-frame of when they came over and how long it's been. They came over around the time of the razing. Of course, you're free to have had your character come before or after for whatever reason, and your personal time-frame will adjust accordingly to that.
