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.

Lankao, a county under the jurisdiction of Kaifeng City, Henan Province, and Zhiguan County, Henan Province, is located at the last bend of the Jiuqu Yellow River, with a total area of 1116 square kilometers and a total population of 859100. It is an important part of "half-hour traffic circle" in "one pole, two circles and three layers" in Henan Province. Lankao County was a household in the Spring and Autumn period, and Jiyang County was the beginning of Lankao County in the Qin Dynasty. In 5 BC, Emperor Liu Xiu, Emperor of the Han Dynasty, was born in the Jiyang Palace in the north of the county. In 9 years, it was changed from Dongfen County to Dongming County. In 1218, Dongming County was abandoned as Tongan Castle, and the new county seat was moved to the old land of Yuanggu County in the north of the Yellow River. In 1232, the south of the Yellow River was divided into two counties: Lanyang County and Yifeng County. In March 1783, the county seat of Kaocheng County moved to Lankao County for the first time. In 1825, Yifeng County was merged into Lanyang County, known as "Lanyi County".
