20201018 阿拉斯加锡特卡的港口 必应壁纸
阿拉斯加 锡特卡的港口 为了纪念阿拉斯加日，我们在阿拉斯加的锡特卡港，这里是19世纪早期俄美的前首都，当时它被称为新奥尔汉格尔斯克。正是在1867年的这一天，俄罗斯帝国的官员正式将阿拉斯加的领土转让给美国，以720万美元的价格出售，相当于每亩2美分。如今，这似乎是一个惊人的小价格，但在当时，反对者称之为“苏沃德的愚蠢”，因为当时的国务卿威廉·苏厄德（William H.Seward）曾与该交易进行过谈判。一开始很少有美国人迁移到“最后的边界”，但在19世纪90年代，当在育空地区和阿拉斯加发现黄金时，大批探矿者和其他人开始在该地区掀起一波移民潮。从那以后，阿拉斯加，以其丰富的自然资源和惊人的美丽，一直是一个珍贵的美国领土和一个持久的美国荒野的象征。
英语原文:
In honor of Alaska Day, we're in the harbor of Sitka, Alaska, the former capital of Russian America in the early 19th century, when it was called Novo-Arkhangelsk. It was here on this day in 1867 that officials of the Russian Empire formally transferred the Territory of Alaska to the United States in a sale for $7.2 million, or just around 2 cents per acre. It seems an astonishingly small price today, but at the time, opponents called it 'Seward's Folly' after then-Secretary of State William H. Seward, who negotiated the deal. Few Americans moved to the 'Last Frontier' at first, but in the 1890s, when gold was discovered in the Yukon and Alaska, a rush of prospectors and others began a wave of settlers in the territory. Ever since, Alaska, with its vast natural resources and staggering beauty, has been a prized American domain and an enduring symbol of American wilderness.
