Tulsa (/ˈtʌlsə/) is the second-largest city in the state of Oklahoma and 47th-most populous city in the United States. The population was 413,066 as of the 2020 census. It is the principal municipality of the Tulsa Metropolitan Area, a region with 1,023,988 residents. The city serves as the county seat of Tulsa County, the most densely populated county in Oklahoma, with urban development extending into Osage, Rogers, and Wagoner counties.

Tulsa was settled between 1828 and 1836 by the Lochapoka Band of Creek Native American tribe and most of Tulsa is still part of the territory of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation.[a]

Historically, a robust energy sector fueled Tulsa's economy; however, today the city has diversified and leading sectors include finance, aviation, telecommunications and technology. Two institutions of higher education within the city have sports teams at the NCAA Division I level: Oral Roberts University and the University of Tulsa. As well, the University of Oklahoma has a secondary campus at the Tulsa Schusterman Center, and Oklahoma State University has a secondary campus located in downtown Tulsa. For most of the 20th century, the city held the nickname "Oil Capital of the World" and played a major role as one of the most important hubs for the American oil industry.

Anding District, which means "peaceful and stable", belongs to Dingxi City, Gansu Province. It is the seat of Dingxi Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. It is located in the central part of Gansu Province. It is 82.9km long from north to south and 73.3km wide from east to west, with a total area of 4225 square kilometers. The region has jurisdiction over 12 towns, 7 townships and 3 subdistrict offices, with a resident population of 430500 at the end of 2017. Anding District was built in 1096 AD (the second year of Shaosheng in the Northern Song Dynasty), named "Dingxizhai", and Dingxi County was founded in 1142 (the second year of Jin Huangtong). In September 2003, Dingxi County withdrew its county and set up a district, which was renamed as "Anding District of Dingxi City". Anding District is one of the birthplaces of the Yellow River civilization, the important town of the ancient "Silk Road" and the necessary place for the New Eurasian Continental Bridge. It is known as "Gansu throat and Lanzhou Gateway", which is far away from the provincial capital Lanzhou.
