Facts Alaska is the furthest north state of the United States. It borders Canada to it’s East. To Alaska’s north is the Arctic Ocean and it has the Pacific Ocean on it’s west and south. The Bering Strait is the waterway 82 kilometres wide that stretches between Cape Dezhnev in Russia and Cape Prince of Wales in Alaska. By land area Alaska is the largest of the 50 states with an area of 663,268 square miles. Alaska is 2,261 miles wide and 1,420 miles long. Despite it’s excessive amount of land Alaska is the fourth least populated state and easily the least densely populated with around half of the state’s population living within the Anchorage metropolitan area. Alaska has the longest coastline of all the United States and if you added all the coastlines of the other 49 states together it still wouldn’t add up to the amount of coastline Alaska has.
