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.

Shihezi, a county-level city directly under the jurisdiction of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous region, implements a division-city management system with the eighth Division of the Xinjiang production and Construction Corps, which is managed by the Xinjiang production and Construction Corps. Located in the middle part of the northern foot of Tianshan Mountain, in the south of Junggar Basin, covering an area of 460 square kilometers, 150 kilometers east of Urumqi, the capital of the autonomous region, Shihezi University, one of the two 211 universities in Xinjiang.

Shihezi is a new city of military reclamation, which relies on farms, is dominated by industry, the combination of industry and agriculture, the combination of urban and rural areas, and the integration of agriculture, industry and commerce.
