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.

Tengzhou, a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Shandong Province, is hosted by Zaozhuang City. It is adjacent to Shanting District in the east, Xuecheng District in the south, Weishan County in Jining City in the west, and Zoucheng City in the north. It is between 116o 49km east longitude 117o 24km east longitude, 34o 50km north latitude and 35 °17' north latitude, with a total area of 1495 square kilometers. Tengzhou, in ancient times, is the land of the three Kingdoms and Wuyi and the state of prosperous culture. The archaeological excavation of the site of "Beixin Culture" dating back 7300 years shows that it is one of the birthplaces of the earliest civilization of the Chinese nation. Tengzhou is the hometown of Mozi, the founder of craftsmen, Xi Zhong, Meng Changjun and Mao Sui. In addition, during the Zhenguan period, Li Yuanying, the younger brother of Tang Taizong Li Shimin, was once named King Teng in Tengzhou, Shandong Province, and built a pavilion named "Teng" in Tengzhou.
