Major modifications generally add or change a significant portion of the game, such as adding in new civilizations or altering the placement and properties of the game's metals and minerals. Major modifications normally require a new world to be generated using the modified files before they can be played.
Due to the wide range of modified files, major modifications have high likelihoods of conflicting with each other. Make sure to check for compatibility issues before attempting to install multiple mods.
