And in teams my teammate can do this too. Right?

Goshen, Kingdoms of this World and Storehouse are great ways to pass characters and Enhancements in teams.

If I have Jacob in Goshen and my teammate also has Jacob in it, I can only take one into my territory. Correct?

You cannot have Jacob in Goshen if either player controls a Jacob.  Since fortresses are shared, no unique character can go there that would cause a duplicate for your teammate, and you cannot put a character into your control that is already there.

If a special ability would cause duplicates for either or both players, then the target is protected from that effect (in Goshen's case, they could not instead be placed there if it would cause either player to have duplicates).  If a game rule would cause duplicates for either or both players (exceedingly rare, mostly involves exchange during battle and then characters going back afterwards), the 'most recent' copy is discarded.

But this is a major pitfall in Teams.  Tower, Boat, Goshen, etc., these CANNOT hold a unique character that is already in a teammate's territory, and if a character is there, then NO copy of that character could be played/controlled by either player (played from hand, put in set-aside, banded into battle, etc.).
