The Russian Ukase of 1821 is the starting-point for this story, plus the Anglo-Russian Convention of 1825. I'll be back with some reflinks on that and may try and add some text, including British/BC perspectives/editorials on the crisis. As with the US' purchase of Spanish rights farther south, they tended to interpret diplomatic deals as to what they wanted, cherry-pickign some clauses and ignoring others, or re-interpreting/defining geography, as was teh case with teh Alaska boundary dispute....The intent of Russo-British agreements was what I htink is why the Arbitration decided in Canada's favour...my sources also list some other vessels seized and mention that it almost brought Canada and teh US to war (meaning Britain and the US). IMO this should probably be two articles Bering Sea Crisis and this arbitration one, same way the Oregon Treaty and the Oregon Boundary Dipuste are two different articles.....Skookum1 (talk) 14:08, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
