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 landing area is one of the four urban areas of Huangshi City, which is located in the hinterland of Huangshi city center, bordered by Huangshi Port and Xisai Mountain in the east, Tieshan in the west, Daye in the south and Ezhou in the north. Now it has jurisdiction over three subdistrict offices of new Xialu, Old Xialu and Dongfangshan, with a total area of 37 square kilometers and a population of 110000 in 2010. It is the transportation hub of Huangshi City, an important metallurgical machinery and building materials industry base and an industry, trade and tourism city with good development prospects. There are large state-owned enterprises in the area, such as Daye Nonferrous Metals Company, Chinalco Copper Strip Company, Huangshi Textile Machinery Factory, Dongfang Pipe Company of Xinye Iron and Steel Group, Hubei Coalfield 182 Geology and other large state-owned enterprises, which are the most obvious transportation and resource advantages in Huangshi City.
