South Africa
Africa Biomass Company.
Site: https://www.abc.co.za/
The company provides cleaning and land preparation services for agriculture and livestock, orchard recycling, river rehabilitation, wood waste recycling, shredding and biomass production. Dealer authorized to sell Bandit wood chipper maintenance for; South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, and Zimbabwe, and Mozambique, Lesotho Swaziland.

Bandit is one of the largest South African trailer and machinery manufacturing companies, if I'm not mistaken.
Then modern equipment and techniques are used in South Africa to obtain wood by-products.
  Interesting in the rehabilitation of orchards, that is when they no longer have commercial capacity, then farmers in South Africa hire the company to shred the Pomare s so that they can rehabilitate, ie rebuild, re-plant.
  This I found very interesting.
very interesting also the rehabilitation of the rivers and it is also shown in the video so it is a company that i consider has a great potential to be in the game simulating there so cleaning an area to do farm for example is a reality in Africa South.

Your research is amazing! I didn't know we could go that farther in just a few time.

The African Truck idea is really advancing indeed. I think the trailers that don't contain any logo could be directly replicated into ATS, don't you think? Like the Iveco trailer in euro truck.

We can create new companies to assimilate the real-life ones as well, creating something unique for the continent.

Yes can create a map of South Africa using much of what is in the game American Truck Simulator in the vegetation and relief.

  It is possible to use that kind of environment, of course the modelers who would make an African map or mod would also need to study the relief using Google Street View to be able to route everything more realistically.

Other assets to be able to chart could come from DLC Iberia from ETS2 and also from DLC Italia, which is Mediterranean vegetation and also exists in South Africa.

Heavy transport in Africa.

Some of the heavy loads that have just arrived in Africa this February.
Africa has great potential to have a truck simulator, not only for driving on paved roads, but also for official off-road roads, in the desert and African
savanna areas.
  It would be very interesting this combination, and challenges for the player to test his driving skills in different environments, in the same game.


There are so many positive economic changes taking place in Africa, and it will be very interesting when maps GAMES are being expanded to regions in Africa.

Mauritania.

Morocco
In the future, Africa Work Simulator in Morocco, we can find the city Tan-Tan, which is the gateway to the Sahara desert.

The entrance to the city TAN-TAN is signaled by two dromedaries.

The journey from Agadir to Dakar
Documentary made by Arab TV "Al Jazira", accompanies two truck drivers, on the route: Morocco - Western Sahara - Senegal.
The landscapes are very diverse along the way and show the important trade flow between countries.

----- West Sahara -----

2. City Es-Semara السمارة (Western Sahara) to city Tan-Tan طانطان (Morroco). Road: R101
Map: https://www.google.com/maps/dir/Smara+% ... 380408!3e0
[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KTRoeDh ... 9&index=18[/youtube]

3. Boucraa Villa. (Western Sahara) Special transport: special transport of equipment for phosphate mining.
Laayoune (Western Sahara) to Boucraa Villa (Western Sahara). Special transport: special transport mining trucks. Interestingly, this video shows that the phosphate mine in Western Sahara is extremely large, and therefore mining trucks are needed.
  In Africa Truck Simulator, it would be possible to transport these mining trucks from: Agadir (Morocco) or Layounne (capital of Western Sahara).

Very interesting logic for the synchronization of the ETS2 and Africa Truck Simulator games would be in the creation of the map of the Republic of Belarus to have the license of the brand of manufacture of mining trucks - BelAZ. And if mining trucks are currently exported to Belarus by Poland Lithuania Latvia but soon it will also be possible to export through Ukraine so it is possible to have this type of synchronization for games and especially for the future in a multiplayer event. Mimining trucks destined for the phosphate mine in Western Sahara could thus be transported from these port cities to the phosphate mine in the middle of the Sahara desert.

I am curious to know that: Should there be historical landmarks along this route ? Should natural monuments exist along the highway?
African Truck Simulator would be very interesting.
  Imagine traveling the route from Dakar, which is the most western point of Africa between the capitals of countries, going up to Morocco, and reaching Spain, with other loads
of course.

This topic can be used as research for a map mod at least.
