And Alaska was part of Russia for a while... makes me wonder what it was called back then?

Аля́ска (compared to ласкать)

Or transliterated - Aliáska (compared to laskat-)

The name "Alaska" (Russian: Аляска, romanized: Alyaska) was introduced in the Russian colonial period when it was used to refer to the Alaska Peninsula. It was derived from an Aleut-language idiom, alaxsxaq, meaning "the mainland" or, more literally, "the object towards which the action of the sea is directed".

Nice to see that they took an Aleut word.

The diminutive form is Алясочка / Alyasochka, I learned that from a Lyube song
