Fresno (/ˈfrɛznoʊ/) is a major city in the San Joaquin Valley of California, United States. It is the county seat of Fresno County and the largest city in the greater Central Valley region. It covers about 115 square miles (300 km2) and had a population of 542,107 in 2020, making it the fifth-most populous city in California, the most populous inland city in California, and the 34th-most populous city in the nation. The Metro population of Fresno is 1,008,654 as of 2022.

Named for the abundant ash trees lining the San Joaquin River, Fresno was founded in 1872 as a railway station of the Central Pacific Railroad before it was incorporated in 1885. It has since become an economic hub of Fresno County and the San Joaquin Valley, with much of the surrounding areas in the Metropolitan Fresno region predominantly tied to large-scale agricultural production. Fresno is near the geographic center of California, approximately 220 miles (350 km) north of Los Angeles, 170 miles (270 km) south of the state capital, Sacramento, and 185 miles (300 km) southeast of San Francisco. Yosemite National Park is about 60 miles (100 km) to the north, Kings Canyon National Park 60 miles (100 km) to the east, and Sequoia National Park 75 miles (120 km) to the southeast.

Fresno is also the third-largest majority-Hispanic city in the United States; 50.5% of its population was Hispanic in 2020. Since 2010, statewide droughts in California have further strained both Fresno's and the entire Central Valley's water security.

Ganluo County, which belongs to Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture of Sichuan Province, is located in the southwest of Sichuan Province and in the north of Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, across longitude 102 °27038 "~ 103 °011545" east and latitude 28 °38 "24" ~ 29 °1832 "north. It is bounded by Maanshan in the east, Ebian County and Jinkou River in Leshan City in the east, Meigu County and Yuexi County in the south, Shimian County in Ya'an City in the west, and Dadu River and Ya'an City in the north. The administrative area of the county covers an area of 2150.79 square kilometers, with a total of 190000 people by 2012. When the county was founded in December 1956, it was called Ganluo County. Because the pronunciation error between the word "Ga" and the original place name was too big, it was renamed Ganluo County in 1959 with the approval of the State Council. In September 2016, the State Council approved the addition of Ganluo County to the country.
