Off topic from the OP...but seeing as it was brought up...

The primals that each beastman tribe worships doesn't seem closely tied to the type of beast they are or the location they're found in, but it seems to be based more on what the beastmen themselves actually worship and the element they're associated with.

For example, we know that the Amal'jaa pride themselves as fighters and their society seems based around warlike tendencies and that they are associated with the element of fire. Of the known summons, Ifrit seems the one most fit for the Amal'jaa.

The Ixali are associated with the element of wind and they long for the power of flight, something that has since been lost to them and thus they rely on hot air balloons to take to the skies. They in turn worship the skies. Between Garuda and Siren, Garuda hands down fills the role of the Ixal primal. Fun fact...Coerthas is known as being the birthplace of the wind.

The Kobolds worship the earth it seems, or at least greatly prize the minerals that come from the earth. It makes sense Titan is their primal.

Sylphs are renowned for their abilities with magic and their society seems to be based around it. Ramuh is on of the most prolific summon when it comes to that regard, so again, it makes sense that he is their primal. 

My knowledge on Sahagin is a bit limited, but using what we know, we can assume that their society is closely related to the ocean. If you can name a more well known and traditional water based summon other than Leviathan, good luck.

This is just speculation, though I believe I might have read it somewhere...but I believe that the Gigas are likely to worship Shiva and are likely from the region north of Coerthas known as the Farreach. 

I'm rambling at this point, but here's some more fun speculation.

The Mamool Ja come from the lands to the west and are mercenaries for hire. Its been said (I'll have to find the source) that the beastmen are looking into summoning their own primal, so chances are, they may end up doing so later down the line. My bet is on Quezacotyl, mainly because the big traditional ones have already been named so any new primals added would likely end up being some of the lesser known summons from previous games.

Siren and Fenrir aren't associated with anything right now, and to be honest, until they reveal more beastmen, I'm waiting on speculating much on them as we can't say for sure she will be a primal. 

The Goblins and the Qiqirn don't have an announced primal yet and it isn't even known if they can summon one. However, the lore of 1.0 tells us that the Paragons taught the beastmen how to summon the primals and that some of the beastmen (namely the sylphs) chose not to use this knowledge out of fear. Following the same vein as King Moggle Mog, they might just get comical primals for the lulz.

Odin and Bahamut have been confirmed as Elder Primals, and methinks that Alexander will fall in line with that as well, all three of which could somehow be associated with the Allagan empire in some way. 

blah blah blah, Mtoto is ramblingagainohgodwhypleasemakehimstop
