With eyes on Alaska for an upcoming meeting of Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, we journey back over 150 years to uncover the remarkable history of how this vast territory became American. Alaska — once part of the Russian Empire — was sold to the United States for just $7.2 million. Was this purchase a stroke of genius, a "folly," or something far more complex? Was it the biggest bargain in history… or a deal Russia had no choice but to make? With Alaska back in the headlines today, its past has never felt more relevant.

Hey there. Somehow you found my video and decided to watch it. So let me introduce myself. I'm Sergei and I'm from Russia. My channel is about my native country. I want to tell English-speaking viewers about the real Russia, about its past and present. Unfortunately, you can find a lot of propaganda about Russia on the Internet, both from the Russian media and from the Western ones. I want to tell you about Russia, as it really is, the country in which I was born, grew up, and lived all my life.
