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.

Kuerle City (Korla), the prefecture-level administrative capital of Bayingoleng Mongolia Autonomous Prefecture in Xinjiang, is located in central Xinjiang, the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain, the northeast edge of Tarim Basin, the Tianshan tributary in the north and the Taklimakan Desert, the second largest desert in the world in the south. It is the throat of the ancient Silk Road and one of the birthplaces of Western culture. It is not only an important transportation hub and material distribution center in southern and northern Xinjiang, but also an important political, economic and cultural center in the region. "Korla" means "overlooking" in Uyghur language, because it is rich in the world-famous "Korla fragrant pear", also known as "Pear City". Korla is the first "national civilized city" in the five northwestern provinces (evaluated on January 23, 2009). In February 2015, it was confirmed by the Central Commission of Civilization that the "National Civilization City" would continue to be retained.
