Seattle (/siˈætəl/ (listen) see-AT-əl) is a seaport city on the West Coast of the United States. It is the seat of King County, Washington. With a 2020 population of 737,015, it is the largest city in both the state of Washington and the Pacific Northwest region of North America. The Seattle metropolitan area's population is 4.02 million, making it the 15th-largest in the United States. Its growth rate of 21.1% between 2010 and 2020 makes it one of the nation's fastest-growing large cities.

Seattle is situated on an isthmus between Puget Sound (an inlet of the Pacific Ocean) and Lake Washington. It is the northernmost major city in the United States, located about 100 miles (160 km) south of the Canadian border. A major gateway for trade with East Asia, Seattle is the fourth-largest port in North America in terms of container handling as of 2021[update].

The Seattle area was inhabited by Native Americans for at least 4,000 years before the first permanent European settlers. Arthur A. Denny and his group of travelers, subsequently known as the Denny Party, arrived from Illinois via Portland, Oregon, on the schooner Exact at Alki Point on November 13, 1851. The settlement was moved to the eastern shore of Elliott Bay and named "Seattle" in 1852, in honor of Chief Si'ahl of the local Duwamish and Suquamish tribes. Today, Seattle has high populations of Native, Scandinavian, European American, Asian American and African American people, as well as a thriving LGBT community that ranks sixth in the United States by population.

Kuerle City (Korla), the prefecture-level administrative capital of Bayingoleng Mongolia Autonomous Prefecture in Xinjiang, is located in central Xinjiang, the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain, the northeast edge of Tarim Basin, the Tianshan tributary in the north and the Taklimakan Desert, the second largest desert in the world in the south. It is the throat of the ancient Silk Road and one of the birthplaces of Western culture. It is not only an important transportation hub and material distribution center in southern and northern Xinjiang, but also an important political, economic and cultural center in the region. "Korla" means "overlooking" in Uyghur language, because it is rich in the world-famous "Korla fragrant pear", also known as "Pear City". Korla is the first "national civilized city" in the five northwestern provinces (evaluated on January 23, 2009). In February 2015, it was confirmed by the Central Commission of Civilization that the "National Civilization City" would continue to be retained.
