Switzerland (German: Schweiz; French: Suisse; Italian: Svizzera) is a landlocked country in western Europe featured in Euro Truck Simulator 2.

Summary

The country is bordered by Italy to the south, France to the west, Germany to the north, and Austria and Liechtenstein to the east. Switzerland is famous for its location in the Alps scenery, and hence curvy roads and tunnels. Switzerland (along with Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Norway, Russia, Serbia, Turkey, and the United Kingdom) is one of the eleven non-EU countries featured in ETS2. In real-life, Switzerland is also part of the Schengen Area, meaning there are no border controls when entering or leaving the country, but despite this, truckers must still pass through border crossings in order to enter or exit Switzerland in-game.

The country famous for its banks, chocolate and watches covers an area of 41,285 square km. Swiss capital city Bern is notable for its old town centre and a number of heritage sites. Switzerland has 71,345 km of roads, total length of the autobahn network is 1,638 km.
