Alaskaball

Alaskaball is the largest stateball in USAball. His flag represents the big dipper and the north star. It was designed while it was a territoryball by a young 3ball.

He has very dangerous roads and there seems to be always winter. He still does not know if he wants to stay with his adoptive father ( USAball) or if he returns with his real father ( Russiaball).

During the Cold War, Alaskaball became paranoid. Because during the Cold War Alaskaball was surrounded by submarines of USAball and submarines of the  USSRball.

History
Alaskaball was born around 10,000 years ago as an iced 3ball, and was first colonized by  Russian Empireball in 1747.

The Russian Empireball is  Alaskaball's father and 3ball is  Alaskaball's mother. USAball is Alaskaball's adoptive parent.

When in 1867, Russian Empireball proposed to  USAball to sell  Alaskaball for $7,200,000 (approximately $10.85 per square mile of land or $4.19 per square kilometer). assumed Alaskaball had no value to his name besides useless clay. He was wrong, about 30 years later, gold was discovered on his clay, and there was a massive gold rush similar to Californiaball's.

Alaskaball has been a stateball since 1959, had the biggest American petroil deposit, discovered in 1968. Russia is unhappy with his decision.

There are proposals to unite America and Asia between a bridge between Russiaball and  Alaskaball. This may never happen...

Alaskaball has a considerable Orthodox minority thanks to Russiaball colonization in the region. Several Russian missionaries converted many natives to the Orthodox Church. 12,5% of the Alaskaballs are Orthodox.

Nowadays, Alaskaball is the coldest state of  USAball. Also the biggest, though Texasball is in denial over it. You could split Alaska into half and both halves would still be bigger than Texas.

Now is being targeted by North Koreaball.
