| | Alaska - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Alaska is the largest state in the United States in terms of land area (it is larger in area than all but 18 of the world's nations) at 570,374 square miles (1,477,261 km²), over twice as large as Texas, the next largest state. |
 | | Owing to the state's low population density, most of the land is located in the Unorganized Borough which, as the name implies, has no intermediate borough government of its own, but is administered directly by the state government. |
 | | Alaska is often characterized as a Republican-leaning state with strong Libertarian tendencies. |
