In countries that use the "short scale" for naming integer multiples of ten, there are 12 zeros in a trillion. In countries that use the "long scale" there are 18 zeros in a trillion.

The long scale is used in much of continental Europe and Latin America. The short scale is use by most English-speaking and Arabic-speaking countries.
