Tarikh Episode 433
Tarikh is a daily Hindi programme in which we present you with incidents and stories of noteworthy persons and Incidents. In this edition of Tarikh, Nikhil talks about Alaska's sale to the United States, also known as the Alaska Purchase or Seward's Folly, was the acquisition of the territory of Alaska by the United States from the Russian Empire in 1867.
At the time, Alaska was a remote and sparsely populated region, known primarily for its abundant natural resources such as furs, fish, and timber.
In 1867, Secretary of State William Seward negotiated a treaty with Russian Minister to the United States, Eduard de Stoeckl, to purchase Alaska for $7.2 million, or about two cents per acre.
Today, Alaska is the largest state in the United States and plays an important role in the country's economy and national defence. The Alaska Purchase remains a significant moment in American history and a testament to the foresight of those who recognized the potential of this remote and often overlooked corner of the world
