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.

Muli Tibetan Autonomous County, which belongs to Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture of Sichuan Province, is located on the southwest edge of Sichuan Province, crossing the Yalong River in the east, Gongga Mountain in the west, Jinsha River in the south and Ganzi Prefecture in the north, covering an area of 13000 square kilometers. The average elevation of the county is 3100 meters, with a relative height difference of 4488 meters. Muli County is an autonomous county dominated by Tibetans, including 21 ethnic groups including Yi, Han, Mongolian and Naxi. It is one of the only two Tibetan autonomous counties in the country, with a total population of 130000 in 2013. Muli has an important water conservation forest in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, which is one of the few primitive forest areas left in China. Muli has a high tourism taste because of its unique natural landscape and cultural customs, and has great potential to develop eco-tourism and leisure tourism. Muli has been known as the "Golden Kingdom" since ancient times.
