Russia
Russia, in 1867 the secretary of the state of US, Mr. William Seward under the President Andrew Johnson, bought Alaska from Russia.
From Russia in th XIXth century.
On March 18th 1867, Russia sold Alaska and the Aleutians to the USA for 7,200,000 dollars - or 29 dollars an acre.

This was bad for Alaska as it lost its civilian government. The USA did nothing for many years except evict Russians from their homes for no good reason and cause unnecessary hardship.
