Baltimore (/ˈbɔːltɪmɔːr/ BAWL-tim-or, locally: /bɔːldəˈmɔːr/ bawl-da-MOR or /ˈbɔːlmər/ BAWL-mər) is the most populous city in the U.S. state of Maryland, fourth most populous city in the Mid-Atlantic, and the 30th most populous city in the United States with a population of 585,708 in 2020. Baltimore was designated an independent city by the Constitution of Maryland[a] in 1851, and today is the most populous independent city in the United States. As of 2021, the population of the Baltimore metropolitan area was estimated to be 2,838,327, making it the 20th largest metropolitan area in the country. Baltimore is located about 40 miles (64 km) north northeast of Washington, D.C., making it a principal city in the Washington–Baltimore combined statistical area (CSA), the third-largest CSA in the nation, with a 2021 estimated population of 9,946,526.

Prior to European colonization, the Baltimore region was used as hunting grounds by the Susquehannock Native Americans, who were primarily settled further northwest than where the city was later built. Colonists from the Province of Maryland established the Port of Baltimore in 1706 to support the tobacco trade with Europe, and established the Town of Baltimore in 1729. The first printing press and newspapers were introduced to Baltimore by Nicholas Hasselbach and William Goddard respectively, in the mid-18th century.

The Battle of Baltimore was a pivotal engagement during the War of 1812, culminating in the failed British bombardment of Fort McHenry, during which Francis Scott Key wrote a poem that would become "The Star-Spangled Banner", which was eventually designated as the American national anthem in 1931. During the Pratt Street Riot of 1861, the city was the site of some of the earliest violence associated with the American Civil War.

Beitun is located at the southern foot of Altai Mountain, north of Junggar Basin, south bank of Ertix River, at the foot of Deren Mountain, bordering Kazakhstan in the west, Russia in the north and Mongolia in the east. It was founded in 1958 and was personally selected and named by Zhang Zhonghan, the former political commissar of the bingtuan, meaning that the bingtuan reclaimed the northernmost land, and it is another star of military reclamation in New China. It is the county-level city directly under the jurisdiction of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous region and the seat of the 10th Division of the Xinjiang production and Construction Corps. It implements the "integration of division and city" management mode with the 10th Division of the Xinjiang production and Construction Corps, which is managed by the Xinjiang production and Construction Corps. It is about 580 kilometers away from Urumqi and 60 kilometers away from Altay Airport. Railway, high-grade highway and aviation are the main lines of transportation, and the national and provincial highways are the auxiliary transport framework. 216 National Highway, 318 Provincial Highway, 319
