The history of Alaska is as follows:
1784 Russians established settlements in Sansheng Bay. This area has been owned by Russia since 1799.
1853 After the Crimean War broke out, Russia was afraid that the Alaska colony would be taken away by Britain and proposed to sell Alaska to the United States. 1867 On March 30th, the United States bought nearly 170 square kilometers of land in Alaska from Russia at a price of $7 million plus a handling fee of $200,000, with an average value of only two cents per mu. The effective dates of the land lease are 1867, 10 and 18, so this date is designated as Alaska Memorial Day. 19 12 is located in Alaska. Founded in 1959, it is the 49th state in the United States.
Extended data:
The aborigines in Alaska include Indians, Eskimos and Aleutians, accounting for about 1/7 of the state's population. The rest are American, Russian, Japanese, China and other nationalities. There are 80,000 soldiers and their families in the state. 46% of the residents live in Anchorage.
The United States acquired the land on the east bank of the Mississippi River in 1783, Louisiana in 1803 from Napoleon, Florida in 18 19 from Spain, and Texas and Texas in 1845~ 1853 through the US-Mexico War.
From the beginning of the19th century, the territorial expansion of the United States attracted immigrants, moved westward across the Appalachian Mountains to the west coast, participated in traffic construction and developed agriculture and animal husbandry, exploited a large number of natural resources, and promoted the industrialization process of the United States. The negative influence is that the westward movement expelled and destroyed the indigenous Indians, which is the so-called road of blood and tears.
