OK, we were speculating about this very thing, just yesterday. And I was asking if anyone has a wee map of said Bering Straight crossing...
And there it is.
Oof, I did not know this:
Indeed. The British Fear and Paranoia of the U.S and Russia creating such a route. Directly lead to the creation of Canada. In order to frustrate the project.
As some of what is now Western Canada was beginning to explore their options as far as possibly joining the U.S. Which would give the U.S a direct land route to Alaska and Russia.
Another Fun Fact about the period.
Montreal Canada was the first stop of Jefferson Davis after his bail was paid by an odd collection of people. Including Wealthy Industrialists, and Northern Abolitionists.
Where he was surprisingly given a hero’s welcome. And entertained by people with suspected connections to British Spys and Diplomats.
