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.

Wuwei, a prefecture-level city under the jurisdiction of Gansu Province, is named "China Wine City", referred to as "Yongliang", "Liangliang" and "Yong". It is located in the confluence of the Loess Plateau, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Mengxin Plateau. The topography is high in the west and low in the east, and the local topography is complex. It belongs to the temperate continental arid climate, which is characterized by four distinct seasons, cold winter and summer. It has jurisdiction over one district, two counties and one autonomous county, with a total area of 33238 square kilometers and a resident population of 1.8253 million in 2017. Wuwei has a long history. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent general Huo to go on an expedition to Hexi to defeat the Xiongnu and named Wuwei for its "martial arts and military prestige". Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty opened up the four counties in Hexi, successive dynasties have set up prefectures and mansions here. Wuwei is the key point of the ancient Silk Road, with many places of interest, snowy plateaus and oasis style.
