Alaska

Russia has a land area of 17,078,000 sq km and is the largest country in the world. Alaska has a land area of 1,717,854 sq km and is the largest state of the USA. Alaska is approximately 10% the size of Russia.

Well, Alaska is part of the US. So it isn't far at all.

Both Alaska and Hawaii where already settled and were already under the control of an established government before becoming a part of the U.S. unlike the other 48 states. They are also the only two states that are physically isolated and separated from the rest of the states. They are also the only two states that have their own time zone separate from any of the other states.

Commercial fishing is important to the economies of both states.

Russia owned what is now Alaska, the 49th state of the US. Many of Seward's critics mocked the purchase. However, looking back it can be seen to have been a wise purchase by Seward.

Ancorage Seawolves, Fairbanks Nanooks and i will add later

From Seattle WA you would drive through British Columbia and the Yukon territory and would take you about 2 days by car.

well in the colonial days a man named Vitus Bering, finder of Alaska, was trying to find a formal settlement for the Russians. i am saying Russians because it was Russians who first had the land of Alaska. the a few years later somewhere in the 1900s a man named Seward bought Alaska using the nations money, the nation is the US. he bought it for 7.2 million dollars. many people were upset that he used the nations money but then people found gold and oil there. then people started building colonies and villages there since people needed food when the were mining for gold or strucking oil. and that is how Alaska became what is now called a state. well Alaska became a state in 1959 so it wasn't that long ago. hope this answers some of you questions.

What is a 1959 Alaska 59 th state one dollar coin worth

Fairbanks

they found oil and it spill gallons of oil some where

The US purchased Alaska from Russia in 1867.

There are currently 86 hotels in Anchorage, Alaska. These hotels range from one to five stars. However, if you are looking to stay at a nicer hotel but are still trying to stay on a budget, a four star or higher hotel can be found within the city starting at $103 a night.

i think that they use it because maybe a lot of people commit crimes and they want to forgive those people. So that is maybe why they use the Circle Justice system.

Hawaii is the warmest state in January. Honolulu averages a high of 80 and low of 63 in January. This is slightly above other warm locations including Miami and Houston.

Kodiak is south of the Arctic Circle, so it has a sunrise and a sunset every day. On the summer solstice the time from sunrise to sunset is 18 hours and 7 minutes.

Pros

-The most important resource in America is oil for many different uses.

-The most common things that its used for a gasoline and petroleum. Also it used in things that you wouldn't suspect. Some examples is rubbing alcohol, fertilizers, house paint, and just about everything else you can think of.

-Oil in Alaska reduces the gas prices in America as well as it does in other countries.

-The Trans-Alaska Pipeline brings to the surface more than 2 million barrels of oil each day!!

-Also promotes huge amounts of coal, a major industrial requirement.

-some reserves in Alaska produce more oil then in Middle East Countries.

-We also get tax revenue and jobs from oil.

-Provide employment and income for Alaskans while the oil lasts.

Cons

-Had a oil spill in 1989 and killed a lot of land and sea life such as whales, fish, birds, and other kinds of animals.

-Drilling for oil is the biggest problem in Alaska because it kills many wildlife habitats and refuges.

-Many animals die because all their food supply is gone and because they had no other place to go to.

-When transporting oil it pollution inland as well as along the coast. This is mainly due to leakages and consistent drilling for oil, other than the established sites.

-Drilling oil also destroys the natural ecosystem, wildlife, terrain, and uses too many available resources.

-Pollutes the air in Alaska and makes it very hard to live and work throughout the state.

The Aleutian Islands.

The University of Alaska.

Formerly called the Catherine Archipelago, the Aleutian Islands comprise some 150 mostly volcanic islands extending twelve thousand miles west of the Alaskan Peninsula. The major island groups, from east to west, are the Fox Islands (including Unimak and Unalaska), Islands of the Four Mountains, Andreanof Islands (including Adak), and Near Islands (including Attu). Good awnswer :)

Attu is the westernomost island in the Aleutians.

Yes, Iceland is in the frigid zone. Any place beyond the Arctic or Antarctic circles is in the frigid zone. Of course, Iceland is not above the Arctic Circle or below the Antarctic Circle so I can see where my answer might be confusing.
