Each with its own unique headaches to try and duplicate as close as possible.
Can this be done with the MOD tools as they stand now? I was actually thinking of playing a Ragnarok scenario which would require fire giants. Of course the "easiest" way to do this would be to duplicate Jotunheim and give them fire powers as opposed to frost/water. So is it difficult to "duplicate" nations?

Trivial; it would take 5 minutes to duplicate a nation, and an hour to duplicate it but change cold-affinity to heat-affinity. Duplicating AND modifying, so that you have a cold-Jotun and hot-Jotun in the same game, is much harder. Also, if you decide to rewrite the descriptions, that'll require work as well.

If you just want to play Ulm versus Ulm, yeah - 5 minutes. But you would not be able to specify pretenders yet, so the new ulm would not be able to choose the master alchemist, for example.
