Somehow, "Ancient maps"-threads always seem to win. Don't make this an exception, Anon.

I'd assist with some delicious repost, but my upload keeps failing.

I like how that map says "Russian America" for Alaska. I wonder how much Russia was kicking themselves during the cold war for selling it =)

I'm just saying that if they wanted to beat america during the cold war, in hindsight it was dumb to sell alaska

it was dumb just from a mineral assets standpoint, but Russia needed the money at the time whats done is done.

i don't understand your point... Alaska was sold LONG before the cold war !
Also it was far away from mainland russia and at the time it was of no mineral/etc interest so it was not dumb at all to sell it.
