Portland (/ˈpɔːrtlənd/, PORT-lənd) is a port city in the Pacific Northwest and the largest city in the U.S. state of Oregon. Situated at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers, Portland is the county seat of Multnomah County, the most populous county in Oregon. As of 2020, Portland had a population of 652,503, making it the 26th-most populated city in the United States, the sixth-most populous on the West Coast, and the second-most populous in the Pacific Northwest, after Seattle. Approximately 2.5 million people live in the Portland metropolitan statistical area (MSA), making it the 25th most populous in the United States. About half of Oregon's population resides within the Portland metropolitan area.

Named after Portland, Maine, the Oregon settlement began to be populated in the 1840s, near the end of the Oregon Trail. Its water access provided convenient transportation of goods, and the timber industry was a major force in the city's early economy. At the turn of the 20th century, the city had a reputation as one of the most dangerous port cities in the world, a hub for organized crime and racketeering. After the city's economy experienced an industrial boom during World War II, its hard-edged reputation began to dissipate. Beginning in the 1960s, Portland became noted for its growing liberal and progressive political values, earning it a reputation as a bastion of counter-culture.

Shucheng County, which belongs to Lu'an City, Anhui Province, is located in the central part of Anhui Province, the eastern foot of the Dabie Mountains, the shore of Chaohu Lake and Jianghuai.

Shucheng is one of the birthplaces of Chinese dragon culture and one of the thirteen birthplaces of Liangzhu culture in China. In ancient times, there were Liu Xin in the Western Han Dynasty, Wen Weng, an educator, Zhou Yu, commander in chief of the Wu Army of the three Kingdoms, Li Gonglin, a great painter of the Song Dynasty, and Shang Shu of the Ministry of punishment in the Ming Dynasty.
