Alaska State Capitol : ウィキペディア英語版 | Alaska State Capitol
The Alaska State Capitol is located in the state capital of Juneau at the corner of East 4th Street and Main Street. It houses the Alaska Legislature and the offices for the governor of Alaska and lieutenant governor of Alaska. ==History==
In 1792, the first capital of Russian America was established at Kodiak. In 1808, the capital was relocated to New Archangel, later known as Sitka. With the United States Alaska Purchase of 1867, Sitka became the headquarters of the Military Department of Alaska under U.S. Army Major General Jefferson C. Davis. In 1877, the army was redeployed from Alaska to the Nez Perce War, and no administration was present until 1879, when the U.S. Navy established a presence at Sitka under Commander Lester A. Beardslee. By the Organic Act of 1884, the U.S. Congress established the District of Alaska, with "temporary seat of government" at Sitka, and a presidentially appointed administration, directed initially by Governor John Henry Kinkead. In 1900, Congress passed a Civil Code transferring the seat from Sitka to Juneau, which had surpassed Sitka in economic growth and importance. ()
