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.

Zhangxian, which belongs to Dingxi City, Gansu Province, has a poor name because of its important strategic position and is regarded as the "western barrier" of the Han Dynasty. Tianshi changed its name to Wuyang County in the second year of the Tang Dynasty, and changed its name to Zhangxian County during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. Zhangxian County is located in the central and southern part of Gansu Province, located in the transitional zone between the West Qinling Mountains and the Loess Plateau, Wushan County in the east, Zhuoni County in the west, Minxian County in the south, Longxi County and Weiyuan County in the north, with a total area of 2164.4 square kilometers and a population of 205876. Among them, non-agricultural population 19056 (2010), is a national poverty alleviation and development work key county. Zhangxian is "the hometown of broad beans in China" and "the hometown of Hippophae rhamnoides in China". It was named "Green County in China" by the China Environmental Protection Federation in August 2008 and was named by China in 2005.
