Washington, D.C., formally the District of Columbia, also known as Washington or D.C. or locally simply as the District, is the capital city and federal district of the United States. It is located on the east bank of the Potomac River, which forms its southwestern and southern border with the U.S. state of Virginia, and it shares a land border with the U.S. state of Maryland on its other sides. The city was named for George Washington, a Founding Father and the first president of the United States, and the federal district is named after Columbia, the female personification of the nation. As the seat of the U.S. federal government and several international organizations, the city is an important world political capital. It is one of the most visited cities in the U.S., with over 20 million annual visitors as of 2016.

The U.S. Constitution provides for a federal district under the exclusive jurisdiction of Congress; the district is not a part of any U.S. state (nor is it one itself). The signing of the Residence Act on July 16, 1790, approved the creation of the capital district located along the Potomac River near the country's East Coast. The City of Washington was founded in 1791, and Congress held its first session there in 1800. In 1801, the territory, formerly part of Maryland and Virginia (including the settlements of Georgetown and Alexandria), officially became recognized as the federal district. In 1846, Congress returned the land originally ceded by Virginia, including the city of Alexandria; in 1871, it created a single municipal government for the remaining portion of the district. There have been efforts to make the city into a state since the 1880s, a movement that has gained momentum in recent years, and a statehood bill passed the House of Representatives in 2021.

Cangzhou, a prefecture-level city in Hebei Province, is located in the Heilonggang Basin in the southeast of Hebei Province and in the east of Hebei Plain, between latitude 37 °29-38 °57 north and longitude 115 °42-117 °50 'east. It is bordered by the Bohai Sea in the east, Tianjin and Langfang in the north, Baoding and Hengshui in the west and southwest, and Nangezhang Weixin River opposite Binzhou and Dezhou in Shandong Province. Cangzhou gets its name because of its proximity to the Bohai Sea, 120 kilometers north of Tianjin, 240 kilometers from Beijing and 220 kilometers southwest of Shijiazhuang, the provincial capital. Cangzhou has jurisdiction over 2 municipal districts, 4 county-level cities, 10 counties and Cangzhou Bohai New area, Cangzhou Economic Development Zone, Cangzhou High-tech Industrial Development Zone, with a total area of 14000 square kilometers.
