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.

Pingshun County, which belongs to Changzhi City, Shanxi Province, is located in the southeast of Shanxi Province and east of Changzhi City. Pingshun County covers an area of 1510.3 square kilometers, has jurisdiction over 5 towns and 7 townships, and has a registered population of 154970 (2014). Pingshun County, located in the western half of the southern section of Taihang Mountains, is a typical dry stone mountain area and old revolutionary base. The whole territory has rugged terrain, high mountains and deep valleys, barren soil, drought and water shortage, and poor natural conditions. During the Anti-Japanese War, Pingshun County was part of the anti-Japanese base area of Taihang, where Zhu de, Yang Xiufeng and other revolutionaries of the older generation lived and fought. During the period of agricultural cooperation in the 1950s, Li Shunda, Shen Jilan and other advanced models led the people of Xigou Village to develop agricultural and forestry production, and the "Xigou spirit" became a banner of China's agricultural front. Pingshun County is a national poverty alleviation and development worker.
