Definición

  • ALASKA HAD BEEN settled from at least 12,000 B.C.E., with the first European contact in 1741 when the Russian explorer Vitus Bering led an expedition to the region. The Russians then established settlements there, but in 1867 sold Alaska to the United States for $7.2 million. [Source: Encyclopedia of U.S. Campaigns, Elections, and Electoral Behavior; Alaska]
