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.

Yitong Manchu Autonomous County, which belongs to Siping City, Jilin Province, is the only Manchu Autonomous County in Jilin Province. "Yitong" is a Manchu transliteration, derived from the name of Yitong River, which means "grand, surging river".

The territory is 76 kilometers from east to west, 66 kilometers from north to south, and covers an area of 2523 square kilometers. It was first promoted to Yitong Prefecture in the eighth year of Guang Xu (1882) and Yitong Zhili Prefecture in the first year of Xuantong (1909). In 1913, the state was withdrawn and the county was established. On August 30, 1988, Yitong County was abolished and established.
