Houston (/ˈhjuːstən/ (listen); HEW-stən) is the most populous city in Texas, the most populous city in the Southern United States, the fourth-most populous city in the United States, and the sixth-most populous city in North America, with a population of 2,304,580 in 2020. Located in Southeast Texas near Galveston Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, it is the seat and largest city of Harris County and the principal city of the Greater Houston metropolitan area, which is the fifth-most populous metropolitan statistical area in the United States and the second-most populous in Texas after Dallas–Fort Worth. Houston is the southeast anchor of the greater megaregion known as the Texas Triangle.

Comprising a land area of 640.4 square miles (1,659 km2), Houston is the ninth-most expansive city in the United States (including consolidated city-counties). It is the largest city in the United States by total area whose government is not consolidated with a county, parish, or borough. Though primarily in Harris County, small portions of the city extend into Fort Bend, and Montgomery counties, bordering other principal communities of Greater Houston such as Sugar Land and The Woodlands.

The city of Houston was founded by land investors on August 30, 1836, at the confluence of Buffalo Bayou and White Oak Bayou (a point now known as Allen's Landing) and incorporated as a city on June 5, 1837. The city is named after former General Sam Houston, who was president of the Republic of Texas and had won Texas's independence from Mexico at the Battle of San Jacinto 25 miles (40 km) east of Allen's Landing. After briefly serving as the capital of the Texas Republic in the late 1830s, Houston grew steadily into a regional trading center for the remainder of the 19th century.

Xingan, which belongs to the Inner Mongolia Autonomous region, is located in the northeast of Inner Mongolia, connected with Heilongjiang Province in the northeast, Jilin Province in the southeast, Tongliao City in the south, Xilingol League and Hulunbuir City in the south, west and north, respectively. The northwest is bordered by Mongolia and the border is 126 kilometers long. The alliance is 380km long from north to south and 320km wide from east to west, with a total area of 59806 square kilometers. Xingan gets its name because it is located in the middle of the Daxing'an Mountains, and "Xing'an" means hills. By the end of 2018, Xingan had jurisdiction over two county-level cities, one county and three banners, with a resident population of 1.6079 million and a regional gross domestic product (GDP) of 47.248 billion yuan, of which the added value of the primary industry was 15.418 billion yuan and that of the secondary industry was 13.682 billion.
