I though that there was a thread about Russia keeping Alaska and that the Czar feels there after the Russia Civil War. If there is one, please let me know.
If not, then what would happen if Russia kept Alaska. Lets assume that Congress does not approve the deal.
My thoughts are WW1 happens and Russia suffers the same fate. The Czar, his family, and many supporters flee to Alaska. Eventually the various White Russian factions made their way to Alaska. The Communist at first were unable to attack since they had no real navy in the Pacific. Also just like Taiwan and PRC, later the American navy was stationed off the Alaskan coast to keep the peace.
What do you think would happen if Russia kept Alaska?
