"Russia is the largest country in the world by area 17,125,200 km2. While geographically mostly in Asia, the bulk of Russia's population is concentrated in the European part together with capital Moscow and, culturally, Russia is unmistakably European. It boasts a rich history and culture. Road safety in Russia is poor, with a road accident rate higher than in Europe or the United States." |
Russia (Russian: Россия, Rossiya) is a transcontinental country which is partly located in Eastern Europe and partly in Asia, featured in the Beyond the Baltic Sea DLC[1] and will also be featured in the (currently postponed) Heart of Russia DLC for Euro Truck Simulator 2.[2] Its capital city is Moscow.
The country is bordered by Norway to the north, Finland to the northwest, Estonia, Latvia and Belarus to the west and Ukraine to the southwest. In addition, the exclave Kaliningrad Oblast has borders with Poland to the south and Lithuania to the north and east. Russia also borders 6 further countries which are included in neither the current map of Euro Truck Simulator 2 nor in a known future expansion.
Accessible Cities[]
There are six (soon will be eight) accessible cities in Russia featured in Beyond the Baltic Sea DLC. Another group of Russian cities will be featured in Heart of Russia DLC.
If the Heart of Russia DLC were to be released, Russia would have a total of at least 40 cities (approx. 44 listed below), which would surpass Spain's title as the country with the most accessible in-game cities. But it's unfortunate that the DLC is currently postponed, so Spain kept the title for the meantime.

Trivia[]
- If one travels into Russia, the fuel price seems relatively expensive, but in reality the currency that the fuel price is displayed in (Russian rubles) is not worth that much - it is worth less than the Norwegian kroner (NOK). This means that fuel priced at 15 Russian rubles translates into roughly $0.60 cents per litre, or €0.55 cents per litre. This is because Russia has extremely large fuel/oil supplies - so large, in fact, that some have been operating since World War II and are still producing oil.
