Nashville is the capital city of the U.S. state of Tennessee and the seat of Davidson County. With a population of 689,447 at the 2020 U.S. census, Nashville is the most populous city in the state, 21st most-populous city in the U.S., and the fourth most populous city in the southeastern U.S. Located on the Cumberland River, the city is the center of the Nashville metropolitan area, which is one of the fastest growing in the nation.

Named for Francis Nash, a general of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War, the city was founded in 1779. The city grew quickly due to its strategic location as a port on the Cumberland River and, in the 19th century, a railroad center. Nashville seceded with Tennessee during the American Civil War; in 1862 it was the first state capital in the Confederacy to be taken by Union forces. After the war, the city reclaimed its position and developed a manufacturing base.

Since 1963, Nashville has had a consolidated city-county government, which includes six smaller municipalities in a two-tier system. The city is governed by a mayor, a vice-mayor, and a 40-member metropolitan council; 35 of the members are elected from single-member districts, while the other five are elected at-large. Reflecting the city's position in state government, Nashville is home to the Tennessee Supreme Court's courthouse for Middle Tennessee, one of the state's three divisions.

Fuxin, a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Liaoning Province, is located in the low mountain and hilly area of western Liaoning Province. It is the central city in the northwest of Liaoning Province and one of the important cities in Shenyang Economic Zone. The transitional zone between the Inner Mongolia Plateau and the northeast Liaohe Plain is a long rectangle with an oblique axis at the intersection of 42 °10'N and 122 °00'E. It is 170km long from east to west and 84km wide from north to south, with a total area of 10445 square kilometers. The terrain is high in the northwest, low in the southeast, high in the southwest and low in the northeast. It has jurisdiction over five districts and two counties, with a total population of 1.85 million in 2018. Fuxin has a long history and culture. Because the first jade in the world and the first dragon in China were unearthed, it is known as "the hometown of Yulong and the beginning of civilization". Fuxin is the cradle of Qidan nationality, the hometown of Zhang Sanfeng, the guru of Wudang, and the eastern spread of Tibetan Buddhism.
