History
The history of British Alaska dates back centuries, beginning with the Russian Empire's exploration and colonization of the North American wilderness in the 18th century. Russian explorers, including Vitus Bering and Alexander Baranov, embarked on daring expeditions into the uncharted lands of Alaska. They established trading posts, built relationships with indigenous peoples, and laid the groundwork for future Russian settlements.
