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.

Hebi City, a prefecture-level city in northern Henan Province, is located in the transitional zone from the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain to the North China Plain. It covers an area of 2182 square kilometers, which is slightly larger than Shenzhen. It has jurisdiction over 2 counties and 3 districts with a total population of 1.62 million. The high-speed railway is 2.5 hours north from the capital Beijing and 31 minutes south to the provincial capital Zhengzhou. Four national highways, including the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, the Beijing-Hong Kong High-speed Railway, the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway and G107, run through the whole territory. The National West-to-East Gas Transmission Project and the South-to-North Water diversion Project pass near the city in the west. Hebi City is the place where the story of the list of gods took place. Chaoge, the capital of the Shang Dynasty, the capital of the Wei State of the Zhou Dynasty, and Zhongmou, the capital of Zhao of the seven heroes of the warring States, were all located in Hebi City. Lin, Shi, Wei, Kang, Yin and South Korea (North Korea) Kang, Qin and other surnames originated here. Hebi is an important birthplace of East Asian national surnames. As a building
