...the name was first used by Russian explorers in the 18th century when they borrowed it from the Aleut word 'alaxsxaq', which literally meant: 'the object toward which the action of the sea is directed'.
It was a Russian Colony until 1867 when they sold it to the US.
"Alaska" comes from the Aleut word Alyeska, meaning "great land," or "that which the sea breaks against."
