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.

Gongliu is located in the middle of the Yili River Valley, on the south side of the upper reaches of the Yili River, at the northern foot of the Narati Mountains, a branch of the Tianshan Mountains, and in the middle of the Yili River Valley, surrounded by Xinyuan, Nilk, Yining, Chabuchal, Tex and Hejing County of Bayingoleng Mongolia Autonomous Prefecture. It is 83 °35'in longitude 81 °34 in east longitude and 43 °38 in latitude 42 °54 in north latitude. The total area of the county is 4528 square kilometers. It now has jurisdiction over 5 farms in 6 towns and 2 townships, living in 23 ethnic groups, including Han, Kazakh, Uygur and Hui, with a total population of 208000 (including 8060 bingtuan). "Gongliu" is the name proposed when the county was founded, which seems to be named after the Gongnai River. According to the manuscript of "Gongliu County Chronicles" during the period of the Republic of China, Gongliu County had a vast territory at that time, so it was ordered to "Gongliu" after the words "Gongjis and Teksta".
