I think you can re-import your world database, which might include a re-import of your ethnicities file.

But I don't know that this will essentially recreate all of your players including their ethnic distributions. It might only rename them but leave their ethnicities intact.

If you tried deleting all of your players and then filling the league with new fictional players, that might be a solution, but that probably depends on whether or not you're running multiple levels of minors. OOTP will not recreate a full draft pool if you were planning on holding a draft. It only creates enough players to fill out all rosters at all levels, and this may not provide enough depth or future talent, particularly if you're only using reserve lists or or running only one or two levels of minors. If you're only using reserve lists, then I think that teams will only end up with a number of players equal to their roster limits.
Thanks for the help.

I will try to manually regenerate each individual minority name in the player editor and see if the new ethnic ratios kick in.

Do you think that might work?

If all fails, I may use this league as a test league to see if the stats are reliable for the time period. Then just delete and start a new league.
