In terms of real-world analogues, Garlemald = Rome, and Ala Mhigo = Carthage.
You have options with a young character. The fall of Ala Mhigo may have deeply affected her, especially if it left her growing up a poor and desperate refugee, or a survivor under colonial occupation. See: Ilberd / Raubahn archetype.
My own main is of Ala Mhigan / Highlander descent, but his grandparents moved away from Ala Mhigo years before Gaius conquered it, and lived in relative prosperity elsewhere in Eorzea. So he has less emotional investment compared to others. See: third/fourth-generation immigrant experience.
