Trivia
The Czech Republic is the country where the developer of ETS2 and ATS (i.e. SCS Software) is located.
In 2016, the short form "Czechia" was officially adopted by the Czech government in 2016 as the preferred way to refer to the country, and other governments and organizations like the European Union have gradually shifted to the short form in the following years. However, the English localization of Euro Truck Simulator 2 still continues to use "Czech Republic" to refer to the country on the world map.
