7 0
Russia offered to sell Alaska to the United States in 1859, believing the United States would off-set the designs of Russia's greatest rival in the Pacific, Great Britain. The Senate approved the treaty of purchase on April 9; President Andrew Johnson signed the treaty on May 28, and Alaska was formally transferred to the United States on October 18, 1867. This purchase ended Russia's presence in North America and ensured U.S. access to the Pacific northern rim.

klio [65]
Absolute states has solid political stability which is very favorable for business and peace at time. However,usually unless the absolute ruler is enlightened, the disadvantages by far surpasses the advantages. Usually, liberties and rights are the first casualty of such a type of rule. The other problem is the excesses of a sovereign who may chose to rule in total disregard of the rule of law.
