Trying to find someone from Connections Academy that could kindly tell me page numbers to find this answer? I am looking for help Unit 3 in the 7th grade book it would be somewhere starting on page# 637. I am an older sibbling who goes to public school trying to help.

Why did the purchase of Alaska fit with Secretary of State William Seward’s foreign policy toward Asia?

Answer 1
