ALASKA

Capital City: Juneau 
Nicknames: The Last Frontier, Land of the Midnight Sun, Great Land
Population, 2005 estimate 663,661 residents

State?s Flag: Alaska adopted the flag for official state use in 1959. The blue field represents the sky, the sea, and mountain lakes, as well as Alaska's wildflowers. Emblazoned on the flag are eight gold stars: seven from the constellation Ursa Major, or the Big Dipper. The eighth, being the North Star, representing the northernmost state. Alaska's flag was designed in 1926 by a 13-year-old Native American boy, Bennie Benson, from the village of Chignik. Bennie received a 1,000-dollar scholarship and a watch for his winning entry in the flag design contest.

Alaska is defined by water and mountains. Bounded on three sides by salt water (the Pacific Ocean to the south, the Arctic Ocean to the north, and the Bering Sea to the west), it has more coastline than the rest of the 49 states combined ? some 6,600 miles, not counting islands. Inland, an estimated 3 million lakes cover staggering 20,000 square miles. More then twice the size of Texas, Alaska has slightly more then 650,000 residents, and half of them live in or around the state?s two largest cities, Anchorage and Fairbanks. The state?s capital is Juneau, is situated between Mount Juneau and the Gastineau Channel. The only surface transportation to and from Juneau is ferry and barge service.

This is the world that Russian explorers found in 1741. Czar Peter the Great ordered the admiral Vitus Bering to chart the Siberian an Alaskan coasts, to find out whether they were connected. Instead of a land bridge, however, Bering found the strait that now bears his name and a bonanza of furred animals. By 1784 the Russians had established a permanent settlement on Kodiak Island. In 1804 Sitka becomes capital of Russian Alaska, later in 1867 U.S. pays $7.2 million for Alaska ? les then 2 cents an acre and finally in 1912 Alaska becomes a U.S. territory. And in 1959 Alaska joins the Union as 49th state. Origin of the name: from the Aleut word Alyeska (The Great Land).
