Delingha vs Perm

Informations

Delingha (Chinese: 德令哈; pinyin: Délìnghā; Tibetan: གཏེར་ལེན་ཁ།, Wylie: gter-len-kha, ZYPY: Dêrlênka), or Delhi (SASM/GNC/SRC romanization of Mongolian: Delhi hot), is the seat of the Haixi Mongol and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in northern Qinghai province, China. It is located approximately 200 km (120 mi) southeast of the Da Qaidam Administrative Region. It is a mainly industrial county-level city. The Bayin River divides the city into two parts: Hedong (河东; 'River East') and Hexi (河西; 'River West'). Because the prefecture seat is located in Hedong, it is slightly more flourishing than Hexi, which is chiefly agricultural.

Established in 1988, Delingha administers seven township-level divisions covering an area of 27,700 km2 (10,700 sq mi) and has a total population of 78,184, making it the smallest of the five cities in Qinghai. The name of the city comes from Mongolian and means "golden world" ᠠᠯᠲᠠᠨ ᠳᠡᠯᠡᠬᠡᠢ, reflecting the relatively large Mongol population of the city. Da Qaidam administrative zone merged into Delingha in mid-2018.

Perm (Russian: Пермь, IPA: [pʲɛrmʲ]), previously known as Yagoshikha (Ягошиха) (1723–1781), and Molotov (Мо́лотов) (1940–1957), is the largest city and the administrative centre of Perm Krai, Russia. The city is located on the banks of the Kama River, near the Ural Mountains, covering an area of 799.68 square kilometres (308.76 square miles), with a population of over 1 million residents. Perm is the fourteenth-largest city in Russia, and the fifth-largest city in the Volga Federal District. In 1723, a copper-smelting works was founded at the village of Yagoshikha. In 1781 the settlement of Yagoshikha became the town of Perm. Perm's position on the navigable Kama River, leading to the Volga, and on the Siberian Route, across the Ural Mountains helped it become an important trade and manufacturing centre. It also lay along the Trans-Siberian Railway.

Perm grew considerably as industrialization proceeded in the Urals during the Soviet period, and was named Molotov in honour of Vyacheslav Molotov. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the city returned to its historical name, and became the administrative centre of Perm Krai. Modern Perm is still a major railway hub and one of the chief industrial centres of the Urals region. The city's diversified metallurgical and engineering industries produce equipment and machine tools for the petroleum and coal industries, as well as agricultural machinery. A major petroleum refinery uses oil transported by pipeline from the West Siberian oilfields, and the city’s large chemical industry makes fertilizers and dyes. The city’s institutions of higher education include the Perm A.M. Gorky State University, founded in 1916.
