Seward's critics called the purchase of Alaska a folly because nobody at that time knew anything about Alaska. The only thing that people knew was that it was very cold and that Russian went there ocassionaly to hunt and to fish. the territory of Alaska was a big piece of icefor many and they thought it was not worth at all.

If it were for economic reasons I would say thank you for the vast amount of oil, gold, copper,silver, rare metals and other raw materials that Alaska has. But I would like to thank you not for that but for the cultures and native people that live in Alaska which reinforce the nickname of our nation as the melting pot.
