Dallas (/ˈdæləs/) is the third largest city in Texas and the largest city in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex, the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the United States at 7.5 million people. It is the largest city in and seat of Dallas County with portions extending into Collin, Denton, Kaufman and Rockwall counties. With a 2020 census population of 1,304,379, it is the ninth most-populous city in the U.S. and the third-largest in Texas after Houston and San Antonio. Located in the North Texas region, the city of Dallas is the main core of the largest metropolitan area in the southern United States and the largest inland metropolitan area in the U.S. that lacks any navigable link to the sea.[a]

The cities of Dallas and nearby Fort Worth were initially developed due to the construction of major railroad lines through the area allowing access to cotton, cattle and later oil in North and East Texas. The construction of the Interstate Highway System reinforced Dallas's prominence as a transportation hub, with four major interstate highways converging in the city and a fifth interstate loop around it. Dallas then developed as a strong industrial and financial center and a major inland port, due to the convergence of major railroad lines, interstate highways and the construction of Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, one of the largest and busiest airports in the world. In addition, Dallas has DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) with different colored train lines that transport throughout the Metroplex.

Dominant sectors of its diverse economy include defense, financial services, information technology, telecommunications, and transportation. The Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex hosts 23 Fortune 500 companies, the second most in Texas and fourth most in the United States, and 11 of those companies are located within Dallas city limits. Over 41 colleges and universities are located within its metropolitan area, which is the most of any metropolitan area in Texas. The city has a population from a myriad of ethnic and religious backgrounds and one of the largest LGBT communities in the U.S. WalletHub named Dallas the fifth most diverse city in the United States in 2018.

Luonan County, located in the southeast of Shaanxi Province, belongs to Shangluo City. Located in the south of Huashan, Huayang Pool is set up in Zhou and Huayang County is located in Qin Dynasty. It is 108 kilometers away from Xi'an. It is adjacent to Lushi and Lingbao in Henan to the east, Danfeng and Shangzhou to the south, Huazhou and Lantian to the west, Huayin and Tongguan to the north, and is known as Shaanxi's "southeast gateway". It is the only Yellow River valley county in Shangluo City and the "top ten gold medal walnut counties" in China. The forest coverage rate is above 90%. Luonan is the hometown of Chinese character culture, and the word Shengcangjie created the characters here, so Luonan is one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization. On August 4, 2018, the Fifth Plenary session of the fourth Shangluo Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China discussed and deliberated the opinions on abolishing the establishment of Huayang District in Luonan County. This work is being submitted to the State Council for approval in accordance with the procedures, which means that Luonan County will withdraw in the future.
