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.

Xiangxiang City, located in the middle of Hunan Province, a county-level city in Hunan Province, is under the jurisdiction of Xiangtan City, a city in central and central China, the hometown of Hunan Army, and an important town in Chunan, which was called "Dragon City" in ancient times. Xiangxiang is 22 kilometers north of Shaoshan and 80 kilometers east of Changsha. Xiangxiang is a provincial civilized city, provincial sanitary city and provincial garden city. Xiangxiang, home to the county in 3 BC, is the birthplace of the Hunan army and the hometown of great men. On March 6, 1987, Xiangxiang County was officially changed into Xiangxiang City. "since ancient times, there has been an army without Hunan, and the Xiang army from all over the world has come out of Xiangxiang." Xiangxiang once "gathered a group of talents with a hundred miles of land, maintained the overall situation with the power of one army" and "conquered 18 provinces with the soldiers of one county". After more than half a century, Xiangxiang has written a heavy brushstroke in the modern history of China. As of 2016, Xiangxiang covers a total area of 1967 square kilometers
