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.

Hotan County (in Uyghur language: Hotan County, formerly known as "Hetian", but changed its name to "Hotan" in 1959) once called Huodan, Wuduan and Huochan, all of which are different translations of the same name. It is said that it originated from Yutian and was famous in ancient Yuchi in Hetian. First, it is spoken in Tibetan, meaning "Yuyi". It means "fence", "livestock pen", or "bunker" in Hindi. The Chronicles of the Western regions of the Tang Dynasty is called qu Sadana, which means "milk" in Sanskrit. In 1959, Hetian was simplified to Hotan. Hotan County is located in the southwest of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous region, adjacent to the Yulong Kashgar River and Luopu County to the east, the Karakash River to the west and Moyu County and Pishan County to the west, the actual line of control of Kashmir in India to the southwest, the Tibet Autonomous region to the southeast, and the hinterland of the Taklimakan Desert to the north to Awa.
