Alaska is a truly huge state that the United States acquired from Russia for basically peanuts. But Alaska isn't just very large, it's also become an incredibly important state for the U.S. in terms of national security for today and well into the future. In this episode, we'll explore how the U.S. came to acquire Alaska, what Alaska means for the future, why it's so important today, and some of the problems Alaska is facing right now.
