Question: What year did Alaska become a territory of the United States?
What year did Alaska become a territory of the United States? Alaska became a state in 1959,
but that is not the question above.
The question is when did Alaska become a territory of the United States? First of all, Alaska was
bought from Russia for 7.2 million dollars in 1867.
That must be one of the best land deals of all time! Anyway, after almost 45 years of paperwork, etc.,
it finally became a territory of the United States in 1912.
