The Democratic Republic Of Alaska

“I have recently returned from Alaska; that is where this came from.” Forsyth extended the Gold Nugget in his right hand. “Tsar Alexander II of Russia is considering selling Russia's holdings in the Americas; He has no knowledge of the extent of the wealth that exists in Alaska. You, our mutual friend and I are the only people that know. I’m the only one with a map of the exact locations. Don’t look so surprised.” … “Over the next ten years, many places in America will discover gold. Just look at the 49'ers strike in California. We need to establish Alaska as a sovereign country; After all, the United States has become very successful. However, even now there are forces at work to destroy this great country. It may take a hundred years, but the cancer is growing.” Thinking to him-self, ‘To make the necessary changes in American history, I would need an army; that will come later. For now all I need to create a new country is to save one life.’
