Alaska was sold by Russia to the United States in 1867 for $7.2 million. This purchase, known as the Alaska Purchase, was negotiated by U.S. Secretary of State William H. Seward and finalized on March 30, 1867.

Alaska was purchased by the United States in 1867 for 7.2 million dollars in an agreement signed by Secretary of State Seward and the Russian Minister to the United States. The buy was largely unpopular and often termed "Seward's Folly." A period of colonization ensued. Then, on January, 3, 1959, after much lobbying by resident Alaskans, Alaska became the 49th state in the union. The declaration was signed by President Eisenhower and the flag was reconfigured to feature 49 stars, a square of seven x seven.
