I always pictured the Allagan empire to something like the Atlanteans

Allagan Empire
[ltr]
Little is known of the lost Allagan Empire (sometimes referred to as the Great Allagan Empire) at this time. The most recent records of Allagan activity currently known take place around the height of the 3rd Astral Era, from which we have several coins and the remains of the Royal Allagan Sunway and Starway. Considering that eras shift in times of prosperity or pandemonium, it is possible that the Allagan Empire fell in the 4th Astral Era, giving rise to the independent City-States that exist today.
Remains of the culture can still be found in Eorzea, such as the Onion Doublet Set (a suit of armor inspired by that of the onion knights of the Allagan Empire) and their worship of The Twelve, indicated by the Allagan Runestones, which many across Eorzea continue to practice.
Issues such as whether or not the fall of the Empire had anything to do with the Garlean's, and at what time the Allagan Runestones were minted, remain areas of speculation.[/ltr]
