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.

Zhidan County, which belongs to Yan'an City, Shaanxi Province, is located in the hilly and gully region of the Loess Plateau in the north of Shaanxi Province, connected with Ansai in the east, Wuqi County and Jingbian County in the northwest, Ganquan County and Fuxian County in the southeast, and Heshui County and Huachi County in Gansu Province in the southwest.

Zhidan County, formerly known as Baoan County, was renamed Zhidan County in June of 1936 in memory of General Liu Zhidan, a "mass leader and national hero". In July of the 25th year of the people's Republic of China (1936), the Central people's Government of the Chinese Soviet Union held the capital Zhidan. The CPC Central Committee and Chairman Mao fought and lived here for more than six months, known as the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
