todays video is Shows Why Why Did Russia sell Alaska to United States,
So in 1867 Russia sold this huge land to america for just over 7 million dollars, this seems like a terrible decision because Alaska is filled with Natural resources and its gdp in 2023 is over 60 billion,
then why did russia sell alaska,
so Firstly, in 1867 Alaska was seen as just a barren and worthless land and it was thousands of miles away from russian heartland, this is why it was unprofitable to maintain for the russian empire,
secondly during this time Russia was at war with the Ottomans and other european powers, and Russian leaders knew that it would be almost impossible to defend alaska from Great Britain,
