An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Operation Alaska, Finalaska or New Finland was a proposed plan by some US officials to take Finnish refugees into Alaska if the Soviet Union would have conquered Finland. There were plans to take Finns into Alaska, both during the Winter War and the Continuation War. New Finland would have been established in Central Alaska around the Tanana River. The plan was opposed by Alaskans, mainly because the Finnish language is difficult to learn and not commonly used in the region.
