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.

The county system was established in Linqing at the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, thanks to the developed water transport of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and economic and social prosperity for more than 500 years, it was an important circulation hub city and a well-known commercial city in the country at that time. Beijing-Kowloon high-speed railway will set up stations in Linqing, 2 highways (Xinglin Expressway and German-Shang Expressway) and 7 national and provincial highways (Provincial Highway 315, Linguan Road, Linxin Road, Liaolin Road and Linlin Road).
