How will we be able to get the Facegen feature to add the necessary/proper faces with the correct teams? That worries me a bit because it would take a lot of work to add the proper looking player to every team in the league. Any ideas?

These images were not done by creating a nation specific league. The league was just a regular old fictional league in the US, and I didn't go to any effort to get appropriate ethnicities for the player images.
The nations.txt file where the nations are all listed has a section for ethnicities, which allows you to define the relative percentage of African, Asian, Caucasian, East Indian, and Hispanic players that come from that nation. Players generated from that nation will then get assigned one of those ethnicities, and facegen will show up accordingly.
You have to give your league a home nation. You can then specify the percentage of foreign players that get generated to play in that league. So you could create a Japanese league with 0% foreign players and the players should all look Asian. If you want to do a world cup type league, you'll probably have to go in and manually edit the players to the right teams because you can't tell the game that you only want Dutch players to play for the Netherlands.
You probably won't need to do any editing of the nations file unless you have unusual needs (Hobbits, anyone?), but you'll find it in a similar location to this:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\Sports Interactive\OOTP Baseball 2007\data\database\nations.txt
It's a simply a comma delimited text file that you can edit in notepad or excel.
