AFAIK you can only get Turkey/Spain/Greece on RA and Fremen/Corrino/Mercenaries/Smugglers on D2k on a modmap as those have their UI stuff coded in. You just need to code world.yaml and prerequisite stuff for RA factions. D2k factions are already coded in world.yaml, you just need to make them Selectable.

Chrome.yaml stuff cannot be edited on maps. You need own mod for that.

The problem is the UI, as said. Unlike units/weapons, UI is haevily intersected with the codebase and ain't even remotely as dynamic as the game itself is. And countries do affect UI through sidebars and whatnot.
