Basic Information About Alaska | Mavimore

Alaska, the 49th state of the USA, formerly known as Russian America, was acquired as a result of an agreement made with Russia in 1867. The discovery of gold reserves that were about to be depleted in the state, which is especially active in the fields of oil and fishing, was effective in the rapid enrichment of the state. In Alaska, where natural conditions are harsh, there are many national parks and forest lands under state protection. Respecting and protecting nature is a social value beyond being a social sensitivity for the people of Alaska. Damaging the soil, picking flowers, or doing anything that destroys nature is met with severe condemnation by Alaskans. The abundance of wild animal species, harsh climatic conditions and unique flora make the country especially interesting for adventure lovers.
