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.

Maguan County is a county under the jurisdiction of Wenshan Prefecture, which integrates frontiers, nationalities, poverty and mountainous areas. In 1913, it was renamed because it had the same name as Anping County, Guizhou Province. Maguan County is located in the southeast of Yunnan Province, connected with Malipo County in the east, across the Panlong River from Xichou County, bordered by Lao Street in Vietnam, Hsin Ma Street, Huangshu Street and Mengkang in the south, adjacent to Hekou and Pingbian counties in Honghe Prefecture in the southwest, and Wenshan County in the north. As of 2017, Maguan County covers an area of 2767 square kilometers, with nine towns, four townships and one farm under its jurisdiction, with a border length of 138km. It has a resident population of 379600, of which 190900 are from 11 ethnic minorities, accounting for 49.8 per cent of the total population. September 25, 2018, obtained
