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.

Yangling District, Xianyang City, Shaanxi Province (formal administrative division), nominally Yangling District is under the jurisdiction of Xianyang City, but its formal administrative jurisdiction is exercised by the Yangling demonstration Zone Management Committee (that is, in a practical sense, it belongs to the lower jurisdiction managed by Yangling demonstration Zone). It gets its name because of the Tai Mausoleum of Emperor Yang Jian of Sui Dynasty. It is located in the middle of Guanzhong Plain in Shaanxi Province, 82 kilometers east from the provincial capital Xi'an and 86 kilometers west from Baoji City. By the end of 2017, the area covers an area of 135square kilometers, with 2 subdistrict offices and 3 towns, with a resident population of 206400. There are tourist attractions such as Sui Tai Mausoleum, Jiaojiayuan and the site of the Agricultural High Council. Longhai Railway, Xibao passenger dedicated Line and Xibao Expressway pass through the border.
