To add a nation, you should look at the following files:

./data/default/nations.ruleset  -- includes files from ./data/nation
./data/engels/flags.spec        -- spec for following...
./data/engels/flags.xpm         -- flags for engels tileset
./data/misc/shields.spec        -- spec for following...
./data/misc/shields.xpm         -- flags for *_sheilds tilesets
./data/trident/flags.spec       -- spec for following...
./data/trident/flags.xpm        -- flags for trident tileset
./data/nation/Makefile.am       -- specifies files in ./data/nation
./data/nation/american.ruleset  -- ruleset for nation (here, American)

It's best to submit flags/shields in their own files, rather than with all
the existing flags/shields.  Something like:
  new_trident_flags.xpm
  new_engels_flags.xpm
  new_shields.xpm
And, each should use the correct palette (GIMP palettes for all freeciv
.xpm files are at <http://www.freeciv.org/graphics/utils/palettes.tar.gz>).
 Given these, I can paste the new flags into the existing files rather easily.

The rest of the changes can be submited by a diff (using "diff -ru").
