Map of Belgium.
Curiosities and what we should improve.

We start with curiosities ...
Belgium borders on Germany, borders, very problematic with the post-war period. Belgium has several German exclaves within its territory and is separated from Germany by an extensive belt of Belgian lands, but of little width.

Geopolitically is "hot" because this type of territorial organization is problematic, is a great "ocean" for friction, if the parties wish.
But in the game world the ETS2 would be curious and fun, see this geographical peculiarity.

There are villages, towns, farms in these German enclaves.

A long and simple Belgian road encircles the largest German enclaves within the Belgian border.
Imagine taking care of the farm and driving down the road, look at the Belgian houses on the route.

 

 

We probably will not see this in ETS2, but it would be something exceptional as a special driving experience.

 

But Belgium also has its exclaves within the Netherlands, curious also the situation is equally "hot" in geopolitics, real world.

You never know who can get a more serious friction at some point. Continuous boundaries are always the best, enclaves (territory of a country, with full frontier with another country or countries (case of Kalingrado on the game map) but with shoreline.For example: Alaska (US state) .Port Rupert town - Vancouver Island , Washington State / USA Perhaps you are in the DLC?, Ceuta and Melila (Spanish cities in North Africa, I hope they exist in DLC Iberia), "Ulster" or "Northern Ireland." The most famous case is Equatorial Guinea 98% of the country is in the enclave on the continent of Africa and its island capital in the Atlantic Ocean.

Exclaves are territories of one country "inside" of another country and may border many countries.
The Vatican, for example, has the exclave of Castel Gandolfo, that nothing is really a farm. It is used as a summer residence for the pope. But it has an active agricultural productive life, in flux with the "capital", the Vatican City. Who knows someday urban trucks in ETS 2 and deliveries. Then the flows of Gandolfo - Vatican City could be simulated.

 Daily average / liters of milk per cow: 30 - 35 liters / day.

1,030 liters of processed milk / day

 500 liters of milk in process / day = cheese (ricotta, 20 to 25 kg / day, mozzarella cheese mozzarella, hard cheese), fresh milk, butter and yogurt.

Maybe one day we'll have a Christmas event at Truckers MP or WORLD TRUCKS with the transport of the Christmas tree to the Vatican.

Every year, a company transports a giant pine tree to S.Pedro square in the Vatican capital, Vatican City. Yes, a truck with a trailer.

This is one of the serious flaws in SCS software's ETS2, there is no interest in simulating cities. It would be a challenge as it is annual for the blessed trucker of this load VERY SPECIAL, represents

CHRISTMAS. JESUS CHRIST was born to be a light to the world and to Europe.

Every year, a company transports a giant pine tree to S.Pedro square in the Vatican capital, Vatican City. Yes, a truck with a trailer.

This is one of the serious flaws in SCSsoftware's ETS2, there is no interest in simulating cities in perfect realism.

 

 

 

It would be challenging as it is annually for the blessed trucker of this load VERY SPECIAL, represents CHRISTMAS.

JESUS CHRIST was born to be a light to the world and to Europe.

 

 

Another very cool and very European idea would be the HD TRAILER broadcast.
With every missionary trip in Europe, there would be a Truckers MP event
or SCSsoftware World Truckers for the mission country and the city.

 The Vatican is a very strong European symbol and good spiritual, cultural.

The most European game and reflecting the native culture It's a shame that beautiful things in Europe are not in the 2ETS and MP TRUCKERS.

 

 

 

We all know that "PEACE" group complains every time, that someone talks on the SCS blog, on Twitter or on the TPM, on how to do the Europeans.

My hope is IBERIA. There are Christian-European symbols everywhere.

This is true for the first time in the simulator of European culture very much symbols: churches.

 

You are noticing the flexing, how legal we are losing; special loads of large pines, over-sized trailers, television trailer on special missions on the mainland.
There is no difficulty in making a CTV trailer or a trailer of pines with special transportation.

But the better things that the "PEACE" class does: cry, tantrum, victimization.

Sad moments ... gifts.

Returning centre thematic:

We know the question of scales. I just quoted to know the potentialities of the ETS2 and knowledge of geography that can allow in a fun way. Switzerland and Germany have their exclaves, some cantons in Liechtenstein, have exclaves.

But to return to the case of the Belgian exclaves, we can cite the complex case of Baarle-Hertog, "inside" the Netherlands, on the border with Baarle Nassau. In short, a city divided in a very complicated way, the border changes from one street to another, groups of houses, farms.
Thousands of tourists per year want to know the "frontier inherited from World War I".

The question is much older, but the postwar in the two great world wars were times to reconfigure borders, apparently some leaders, chose not to generate new frictions with the most thorny issues, and left future generations to solve.

The European Union has made these border issues almost irrelevant, although such issues are always a security problem. But the Belgian and German borders with their enclaves show that dialogue, which would be a serious problem, can become a source of prosperity together.

 

Then maybe one day the "driver" at ETS 2 take his Belgian coffee and Dutch biscuits in "Baarle", both in the sector, after all everything is Europe.

 

Belgian cities that deserve to arrive on the map ETS2:
Well, maybe one day "Baarle-Hertog" and her twin sister; "Baarle-Nassau", historic cities.

Other cities that I consider important for the map (ideal, utopian) are:
Antwerp - Port
Oostende - Port
Gent - Industry
Namur - Industry

Charleroi - Industry
Bastogne - historic town
Hasselt - industry
Mons - industry
Waterloo - historic city

Kortrijk /Contric - historic city 

Bruges - Port

Ypres - historic city 

Spa - speed racing - Spa-Francorchamps- 
 

 

But let's face it, the map still does not allow this Belgium, for scale reason.

So I would choose the 1.35 map to include:
- Antwerp and Spa.
