Basically, look through the wiki page and the RAWs for existing civs to get the basics.
All you need in a civ to make it playable in fortress mode is [CIV_CONTROLLABLE] in there somewhere.

That's really all there is to it.
Just make sure to have a digger item to dig with, if you want it.

Ah? No, just paste [CIV_CONTROLLABLE] in their entity file and you can play as them. If you don't have one yet, just copy the Dwarf's and change what you want.

To an extent - They wouldn't exist(need a starting place/number, biome info, etc.), they should have tools and clothing too.
(Unless what you posted isn't the whole thing- if there's more, then it should work)

EDIT:

Yes.

Yes, you need all those things (or to replace them with new ones), if you want reactions and items.

Well you *could*, but they wouldn't spawn, wouldn't be equipped with anything, couldn't make any buildings, and couldn't do any reactions.

The Reactions are the things you do in buildings, so like "brew a drink". So ya, you need them.

Yes, if you don't have any nobles designated in the entity file, you will be like the kobolds. No nobles.

It means you won't have a trader, a manager, anyone to do your stocks, or any of the other noble bonuses.
