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.

Lankao County was a household in the Spring and Autumn period, and Jiyang County was the beginning of Lankao County in the Qin Dynasty. In 5 BC, Emperor Liu Xiu, Emperor of the Han Dynasty, was born in the Jiyang Palace in the north of the county. In 9 years, it was changed from Dongfen County to Dongming County. In 1218, Dongming County was abandoned as Tongan Castle, and the new county seat was moved to the old land of Yuanggu County in the north of the Yellow River. In 1232, the south of the Yellow River was divided into two counties: Lanyang County and Yifeng County. In March 1783, the county seat of Kaocheng County moved to Lankao County for the first time. In 1825, Yifeng County was merged into Lanyang County, known as "Lanyi County".
