"Only about half of the Netherlands 41,543 square km area exceeds one metre above sea level. The total road network of the Netherlands has 139,295 km, including 2,758 km of expressways. Amsterdam, the capital city, is famous for its nightlife and numerous festivals." |
The Netherlands (Dutch: Nederland) is an accessible country first appearing in Euro Truck Simulator. It is characterised by it's mostly flat terrain (sometimes even below sea level).
The Netherlands borders Belgium to the south, Germany to the east, and (as in Euro Truck Simulator 2) has ferry connections to United Kingdom. Many players use the Netherlands to travel between the UK and Germany.
While windmills can be found almost everywhere on the ETS 2 map, the windmills in Netherlands are rendered in unique Dutch style. Another unique feature to the country is a highway over a dike, which is part of the A7 between Amsterdam and Groningen.
