Giants are rare on the continent. But if you want to have players being mighty giant slayers set your game in the Northlands where, "there are also a number of giant communities scattered about the north." (Banestorm, pg 169)

If you want there to be hundreds of giants to slaughter just say there are, they live in the mountains of Zarak and in the Northlands...then the PCs go and kill them all day long.

How many dragons do you want the players to kill? Put them in. If you want a dungeon fantasy-ish version of Yrth just place the Dragons, Giants, and Dungeons there...and start killing them. It would be easiest to do it in the Northlands because there is very little civilization, but you can do it wherever you want. You are the GM, you just say that is the way it is.
