All this is based on the Timeline on the Last Exile wikia...
I'm not sure if they were the technocratic rulers, but they were at least the ones tasked with being in charge of the technology that managed all of the Presters. Guild was the safeguard to make sure that the Presters functioned correctly for its inhabitants.
... but well years passed and that safeguard isn't quite the best safeguard.
If they were truly the rulers on Earth, I don't see why they'd allow themselves to forget what they had.
