HISTORY

History

The history of Alaska is a fascinating tale of exploration and resilience.

Inhabited by various indigenous cultures for millennia, the region was sighted by Russian explorers in the 18th century, who sought riches through seal hunting and fishing.

In 1867, the United States purchased Alaska from Russia, an agreement initially criticized but which proved crucial for its development. The Klondike gold rush in 1897 transformed the region, attracting prospectors and settlers. After becoming a territory in 1912, Alaska finally became the 49th state of the U.S. in 1959, preserving its rich cultural heritage and stunning nature.
