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.

Hekou Yao Autonomous County is located in the southeast of Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture, across the Red River from Vietnam's old market and Gulu City. It is the only autonomous county with Yao as the main body in Yunnan Province. The transportation in Hekou County is very convenient, and the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway, Kunhe Highway and Red River Channel form a hub here to connect with Vietnam, which is the most convenient land passage for Yunnan Province and even the southwest region to Southeast Asia and the South Pacific. Since opening to the outside world, Hekou County has made great efforts to develop port economy and trade and established good economic cooperation with Laojie Province in Vietnam.
