Omaha (/ˈoʊməhɑː/ OH-mə-hah) is the largest city in the U.S. state of Nebraska and the county seat of Douglas County. Omaha is in the Midwestern United States on the Missouri River, about 10 mi (15 km) north of the mouth of the Platte River. The nation's 39th-largest city, Omaha's 2020 census population was 486,051.

Omaha is the anchor of the eight-county, bi-state Omaha-Council Bluffs metropolitan area. The Omaha Metropolitan Area is the 58th-largest in the United States, with a population of 967,604. The Omaha-Council Bluffs-Fremont, NE-IA Combined Statistical Area (CSA) totaled 1,004,771, according to 2020 estimates. Approximately 1.5 million people reside within the Greater Omaha area, within a 50 mi (80 km) radius of Downtown Omaha. It is ranked as a global city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network, which in 2020 gave it "sufficiency" status.

Omaha's pioneer period began in 1854, when the city was founded by speculators from neighboring Council Bluffs, Iowa. The city was founded along the Missouri River, and a crossing called Lone Tree Ferry earned the city its nickname, the "Gateway to the West". Omaha introduced this new West to the world in 1898, when it played host to the World's Fair, dubbed the Trans-Mississippi Exposition. During the 19th century, Omaha's central location in the United States spurred the city to become an important national transportation hub. Throughout the rest of the 19th century, the transportation and jobbing sectors were important in the city, along with its railroads and breweries. In the 20th century, the Omaha Stockyards, once the world's largest, and its meatpacking plants gained international prominence.

Beitun is located at the southern foot of Altai Mountain, north of Junggar Basin, south bank of Ertix River, at the foot of Deren Mountain, bordering Kazakhstan in the west, Russia in the north and Mongolia in the east. It was founded in 1958 and was personally selected and named by Zhang Zhonghan, the former political commissar of the bingtuan, meaning that the bingtuan reclaimed the northernmost land, and it is another star of military reclamation in New China. It is the county-level city directly under the jurisdiction of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous region and the seat of the 10th Division of the Xinjiang production and Construction Corps. It implements the "integration of division and city" management mode with the 10th Division of the Xinjiang production and Construction Corps, which is managed by the Xinjiang production and Construction Corps. It is about 580 kilometers away from Urumqi and 60 kilometers away from Altay Airport. Railway, high-grade highway and aviation are the main lines of transportation, and the national and provincial highways are the auxiliary transport framework. 216 National Highway, 318 Provincial Highway, 319
