OOTP 14: Setting up a new world (need help on world_default.xml)

Hi!

With the manual being... out of date and the new possibility of having separate databases for your game I am trying to set up my new league (a small one for starters to test the setup).

I am running into trouble with the world_default.xml, and here are my problems:

My league is a sci-fi league. There basically are only four major nations, but there are several "races" within each. My league starts in just one of those, but I have three to n races in it, which is important to get the names right - and I have logos (in lieu of flags) for each "race".

Obviously I don't have continents or cities. Instead I have planets (but more important are space stations), systems, constellations (they are pretty arbitrary collections of systems and might be ignored) and regions, which may contain systems controlled by different star empires, though.

My big question is: How would I model this in the game, especially the world_default.xml?

This is a bit different from setting up a new fantasy continent in our world and I am having trouble wrapping my head around it .
