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.

Tongzi County is under the jurisdiction of Zunyi City, Guizhou Province. It is located in the north of Guizhou Province, bordering Chongqing in the north, Huichuan District and Renhuai City in the south, Xishui County and Qijiang District in Chongqing in the west, and Nanchuan District and Wansheng District in the north. The ground spans 27 °57 °N 28 °54 °N, 106 °26 °E and 107 °17 °E, with a total land area of 3202 square kilometers. Tongzi County has jurisdiction over 2 streets, 20 towns, 2 townships and 1 ethnic township. At the end of 2017, the registered population of Tongzi County was 742300. Tongzi County is "the hometown of bamboo shoots in China", known as "the gateway to northern Guizhou" and "the key to Sichuan and Guizhou". Sichuan-Guizhou Railway, National Highway 210 and Yu-Zhan Expressway run through the county, and the driving time from the county seat to Guiyang and Chongqing is about 2 hours. In September 2018, Tongzi County withdrew from the poverty-stricken county.
