Russians will sell this for 7.2 million dollars

>Russians will sell this for 7.2 million dollars
>Adjusted for inflation, that's 112 million dollars today
>Russians will sell this for 224 really nice cars

It's not like Russians are very intelligent

Imagine an alternative world where the Russians never sold Alaska to the USA.

Now imagine the cold war in this alternative world.

what is there in alaska though, besides snow, wolves, trees, william riker, and i think solid snake

oil and gold
plus it's very close to North America. see

They didn't knew there was oil and shit

Honestly, America would have invented an excuse to either take it or have Canada take it.

Southern most Russian colonies in North America were in modern day California

...

it is not like we ever had lack of frozen wasteland. Alaska could be really useful during cold war tho

You can have it back if you want it, but there's a catch.
You have to take Sarah Palin with it. Her whole family, too.

Nigga have you seen alaska. WOULD YOU GIVE THIS AWAY?

they could literally deploy their nuclear warheads at juneau and be 3x more relevant today

How does it feel to have the most massive cartographic dick in the world?

>Sarah Palin
It is not like we ever had lack of dumb bitches...

Shh! I almost got rid of the Palins!
Did I mention she gets to be in charge of your country?

Really good. desu. I am kinda ashamed I did not visit tons of nice places we have here.

You don't go outside enough.

But it's too sunny outside and my feet hurt.

Better sell it to you than have it captured by Britshits. Russian empire was in a shitty spot when that decision was made.

if they didn't sell it they would've lost it in a war with usa anyway, the reason russia is able to defend its land so properly is because it's all adjoined and they can use scorched earth, you can't do scorched earth and retreat on alaska if you dont have naval supremacy.

Oil. Lots of oil.

Nah. At that time, the Yanks didn't have the courage to go to war with white people.

This. The choice was to lose it anyway because of a war with the britbongs, or sell it and at least make some money out of it
