Albuquerque (/ˈælbəkɜːrki/ (listen) AL-bə-kur-kee; Spanish: [alβuˈkeɾke]),[a] abbreviated ABQ, is the most populous city in the U.S. state of New Mexico. Its nicknames, The Duke City and Burque, both reference its founding in 1706 as La Villa de Alburquerque by Nuevo México governor Francisco Cuervo y Valdés. Named in honor of the Viceroy of New Spain, the 10th Duke of Alburquerque, the city was an outpost on El Camino Real linking Mexico City to the northernmost territories of New Spain.

Located in the Albuquerque Basin, the city is flanked by the Sandia Mountains to the east and the West Mesa to the west, with the Rio Grande and bosque flowing from north-to-south. According to the 2020 census, Albuquerque had 564,559 residents, making it the 32nd-most populous city in the United States and the fourth largest in the Southwest. It is the principal city of the Albuquerque metropolitan area, which had 916,528 residents as of July 2020, and forms part of the Albuquerque–Santa Fe–Las Vegas combined statistical area, which numbers 1,162,523 as of January 2020.

Albuquerque is a hub for technology and media companies, historic landmarks, and the fine arts. The city is known for hosting the University of New Mexico, the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, the Gathering of Nations, the New Mexico State Fair, as well as for its diverse restaurant scene, which features both New Mexican cuisine and cuisines from around the world.

Shizong County, a county under the jurisdiction of Qujing City, is a multi-ethnic agricultural county in the mountainous area. It got its name because the tribal leader Shizong led the army to live in Nirongdian (now Xihua Village outside Shizong County) in the Tang Dynasty. Shizong County, located in the southeast of Yunnan Province, is one of the old revolutionary base counties in Yunnan Province. It is bordered by Luoping County in the east, Xilin County in the southeast, Qiubei County in the south, Luxi County in the southwest and Luliang County in the north. As of 2012, Shizong County has jurisdiction over 5 towns and 3 townships, with 99 village committees and 10 communities; the total population is 421335 and there are 35 ethnic minorities living, mainly Yi, Zhuang, Miao, Hui, Yao and so on. On April 30, 2019, the people's Government of Yunnan Province decided that Shizong County should withdraw from the sequence of poor counties.
