Louisville (/ˈluːivɪl/ (listen) LOO-ee-vil, US: /ˈluːɪvɪl/ (listen) LOO-ə-vəl, locally /ˈlʊvɪl/ (listen) LUUV-əl) is the largest city in the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the 28th most-populous city in the United States.[a] Louisville is the historical seat and, since 2003, the nominal seat of Jefferson County, on the Indiana border.

Named after King Louis XVI of France, Louisville was founded in 1778 by George Rogers Clark, making it one of the oldest cities west of the Appalachians. With nearby Falls of the Ohio as the only major obstruction to river traffic between the upper Ohio River and the Gulf of Mexico, the settlement first grew as a portage site. It was the founding city of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, which grew into a 6,000-mile (9,700 km) system across 13 states.

Today, the city is known as the home of boxer Muhammad Ali, the Kentucky Derby, Kentucky Fried Chicken, the University of Louisville and its Cardinals, Louisville Slugger baseball bats, and three of Kentucky's six Fortune 500 companies: Humana, Kindred Healthcare, and Yum! Brands. Muhammad Ali International Airport, Louisville's main commercial airport, hosts UPS's worldwide hub.

Eryuan County is one of the counties under the jurisdiction of Dali Prefecture, Yunnan Province. It is located in the north of Dali City, the source of Erhai Lake. With a land area of 2875 square kilometers, it is an ethnic minority county inhabited by 24 ethnic groups, including Han, Bai, Yi, Hui, Dai and Lisu, with a total population of 320400 at the end of 1999. Because of its rich natural resources, Eryuan is praised as "land of fish and rice", "hometown of plum", "hometown of dairy cows", "hometown of hot springs", "hometown of orchids", "hometown of plateau water" and "hometown of suona". On September 29, 2018, Eryuan County was approved to withdraw from the poverty-stricken county after being studied by the Yunnan provincial party committee and provincial government.
