Alaska became a part of the US when Russia badly needed some money and gladly took up a guy named Seward on his offer of buying Alaska for a relatively cheap price. At that time, American citizens called Alaska "Seward's Folly" becauose they thought buying Alaska was a waste of money. They called it just an "ice box", after all. However, then gold was discovered in Alaska. The same people who called Seward a fool now went back to calling him a genius. What sarcasm...
