Mining of gold in this area created unity among the people living around back in 1890s. Alaska experienced a difference in the year 1912. The country had two islands that the Japanese came to rule over. The people of Alaska benefited a lot when gold was discovered.
The two islands were then occupied by the Japanese, the thought of recovering it to the U. S led to national pride. There was an increase in the growth of population in the Alaskan cities due to the development of military bases. This made Alaska popular and was given the title of statehood in the year 1959 on 3rd of January.

Alaskans discovered crude oil in the year 1968. A pipeline was constructed in 1977 which helped oil reach different parts of the country. This was not long before an accident occurred and caused the pipeline to burst out causing oil spillage of about 35million U. S gallons in 1989.
The first Alaskans that originated from the coast of Asia and passed through the Western Alaska are today living in Canada. The farming activities like subsistence activities and cultural practices were totally different. But they did what they could together to show how they care and love each other.
Alaska, following economic development grew to a large extent that the area became unsafe again. Individuals crossed paths with each other over gold mining, copper mining and many more. The area started having hostility . Different people run away to settle in other areas where they would live in peace. In Alaska they lived in fear of being attacked and forced into slavery. Families were no longer happy together as the clashes made them to separate. Alaskans were at the end displaced by an average of eighty percent.
