Op your head dey work. Reading through the thread I see so many ignorant comments trying to dispute your claim. The U.S.–Russian boundary extends through the Bering strait. Little Diomede Island (Alaska) and Big Diomede Island (Siberia), Bering Strait. 2 Likes |

Amotolongbo:Na Russia won't have been to able to keep Alaska. It's too far off from their mainland and the UK or france which were the greatest powers of that era would have annexed it. So they sold to the US to counter the UK and to get needed Funds. 3 Likes |

See How Close Russia Is To USA Geographically In The Mid-Atlantic Region The reason for its interest in the region is the location of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge between North America and Europe It is a place of extreme contrasts that creates volcanic activity and earthquakes In the past 50 years, since the discovery of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge by US scientists, there has been a massive amount of discovery and scientific discovery at the site In the next 10 years it is estimated that up to 100 times more new information on the Ridge will be discovered The discovery of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, is a very important geological event, because the Earth’s crust is constantly being broken apart and shifted by the action of sub-sea plates The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is very important for understanding the current shape and geological characteristics of the North American Plate 1 Like |

bluefilm:Nothing. It's cold and uninhabitable. Even Putin don't want it. The only reason why Russia would regret selling it is because of the strategic advantage it gave the US to become an Arctic nation. Without Alaska, the United States would not have been a member of the Arctic nations. Most of the Arctic is claimed by Russia along with Norway. 3 Likes |

AMERICA IS MODERN SODOM AND GOMORRAH AND IT WILL MEAN INJUSTICE ON GOD SIDE IF HE SPARES AMERICA THAT IS QUILTY OF CORRUPTING THE WHOLE WORLD WITH SIN AFTER HE MADE AN EXAMPLE WITH SODOM THAT HE DOES NOT COMPROMISE WITH SIN. GOD RAISED RUSSIA (THE KING OF THE NORTH) FOR THE PURPOSE OF DESTROYING AMERICA WHEN THE TIME COMES. THIS IS CONTAINED IN DANIEL 11 WHERE THE KING OF THE NORTH (RUSSIA) DESTROYED THE KING OF THE SOUTH (AMERICA) IN THE ENDTIME. IT WILL BE A SURPRISE MULTIPLE NUCLEAR ATTACKS AND WILL BE DONE BY RUSSIA TO PAVE WAY FOR RUSSIA (GOG) CHINA (MAGOG) AND IRAN (PERSIA) TO LEAD THE REST OF HUMANITY IN WAR AGAINST ISRAEL, TO IMPOSE IT ON ISRAEL TO ACCEPT THE DIVISION OF JERUSALEM AS THE CAPITAL OF THE STATE OF PALESTINE AND ISRAEL. UN'S RECOGNITION OF THE STATE OF PALESTINE WHICH WILL TAKE PLACE NOT FAR FROM NOW WILL PUSH ISRAEL TO DESTROY AL AQSA MOSQUE AND SINCE THERE IS NO WAY THAT THE WHOLE WORLD CAN THINK OF ATTACKING ISRAEL WITH USA ON THE SCENE, RUSSIA WILL DO THE DIRTY DEAL OF REMOVING USA OUT OF THE WAY TO PAVE WAY FOR THE GLOBAL WAR AGAINST ISRAEL. RUSSIA HAS MILITARY PACT WITH THE MUSLIM WORLD AND WILL DO THIS ON THEIR BEHALF. EVERY GOOD BIBLE STUDENT KNOWS THAT BIBLE DIDNT MENTION AMERICA IN THE BATTLE OVER JERUSALEM AND THIS WAS WHY. GOD, MAGOG AND PERSIA WERE THE COUNTRIES MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE THAT WILL LEAD THE WAR AND THESE COUNTRIES ARE ALREADY IN SYRIS, ISRAEL'S BACKYARD, WAITING FOR THE D-DAY AND THIS IS WHY ISRAEL KEEPS ATTACKING IRAN IN SYRIA BUT IT IS TOO LATE FOR THEM TO FORCE IRAN OUT OF SYRIA. ANY ONE WHO IS LOOKING AT AMERICA'S MILITARY MIGHT AND CONSIDERS THIS IMPOSSIBLE, SHOULD REMEMBER DAVID AND GOLIATH. IT IS NEITHER BY POWER NOT BY MIGHT THAT BATTLES ARE WON BUT BY COUNSEL OF GOD AS THIS WORLD TURNS AROUND HIS WILL. 1 Like |

Kinematics:It's too far off from their mainland and it is a cold uninhabitable place. Russia is Euro-Asia. They span across two continents from eastern Europe to the far East Asia in Vladivostok bordering China. The Alaskan territory is in North America. It's too far from the center of their civilisation and yes it is a wasteland, atleast at that time. They won't have sold it now though because it has oil. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Emuforlife1: Yes, Peace! However, in the Arctic, Russia dominates. Several Military Bases of theirs are already stationed. Russia is strategically positioned and in event of cooperation with China going so well it will just be a matter of time for it to solve its economy doldrums. Russia and China are the future, US and its allies know this quite well. 1 Like 1 Share |

Amotolongbo:If the Russians hadn't sold Alaska, that region would for sure be a flashpoint between both countries. Imagine Russian exclusively controlling the Bering strait. Also, the Russian federation might decide to build a base in Alaska; just imagine the US' and Canadians' reaction to that. |
