Alaska

Alaska is the largest state in the United States, located in the far northwest of North America. Its border include the Beaufort Sea and the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Canadian provinces of the Yukon and British Columbia to the east, the Gulf of Alaska and the Pacific Ocean to the south, the Bering Strait and the Bering Sea to the west, and the Chukchi Sea to the northwest. It occupies over 1,717,856 km2 (663,268 sq mi) of land, with 13.77% of it being composed of water; this makes Alaska the largest state in the union.
In the anomalous world, SCP-2397 occupies 1.3 km (0.81 miles) of land and Site-13 was planned to be constructed in Alaska only to be scrapped in favor of Site-19.
==Relevant history==
===Overview===
Alaska was originally occupied by many Native Alaskan tribes before the territory was claimed by the Russian Empire due to its proximity to Russia itself across the Bering Strait, though some Spanish forts were established in southern Alaska. It was purchased by the United States in 1867 as part of the Alaska Purchase for $7.2 million ($144 million in 2022). It served as an incorporated territory of the United States until 1959, when it became the 49th state.
