Is it interesting that the Alaska flag was first created by a 13 year old named Bennie Benson in 1926 for a contest. At that time it was made to be a territorial flag.
Alaska didn't become a state until 1959.
The U.S. bought it from Russia in1867 for $7.2 million.
The price was based off of 2 and a half cents for each acre.
Well that's all I have right know if you want to know more about life in the AK just ask.
Thanks for reading.
