  • Yuli County

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.

Yuli, also known as "Luo Bunur", gets its name from "Lop Nur", meaning "lake with plump aquatic plants". It is located in central Xinjiang, in the hinterland of Bayingol Mongolia Autonomous Prefecture, 520km away from Urumqi and 50 km south of Korla, with a total area of 59700 square kilometers. It has jurisdiction over 7 townships, 1 town, 9 communities and 50 administrative villages. There are 5 regiment fields of the second Division of the production and Construction Corps in the county and 5 units directly stationed in the county (31 regiment, 33 regiment, 34 regiment, Chara water pipe of the second division, and the downstream management station of the Peacock River of the Bayingol Administration Bureau of the Tahe River). The National Highway 218 runs through the whole county and is one of the important transportation hubs in southern Xinjiang. It is particularly rich in mineral resources and tourism resources. It is known as the "back Garden" of Korla.
