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.

Zhangping (ancient Zhangzhou capital Zhangping County, Ningyang County) is located in the southwest of Fujian Province, in the upper reaches of the Jiulong River (Beixi), between 24 °54 miles north latitude and 117 °11 miles east longitude. It is located in the east gate of western Fujian, Yongchun and Anxi in the east, Hua'an and Nanjing in the south, Silla in the west, Yongan and Datian in the north, Xiamen and other developed coastal areas in southern Fujian. It connects the hinterland of Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi. Zhangping bought the county in the seventh year of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty (1471), and withdrew the county to build the city in 1990. Zhangzhou Qiang Zhangping dialect is popular in Minnan dialect (some areas such as Xinqiao in Xinan are close to Quanzhou as spring cavities). In 2017, the regional GDP reached 23.256 billion yuan, an increase of 8% over the previous year.
