Alaska occupies the northwestern portion of the North American continent and is bordered only by Canada on the east. It is one of two U.S. states not bordered by another state; Hawaii is the other. Alaska has more ocean coastline than all of the other U.S. states combined. About 500 miles (800 km) of Canadian territory, consisting of British Columbia, separate Alaska from the U.S. state of Washington. Alaska is thus an exclave of the United States that is part of the Continental United States and the U.S. West Coast, but is not part of the Contiguous United States.
The state is bordered by Yukon and British Columbia, Canada to the east, the Gulf of Alaska and the Pacific Ocean to the south, Asian Russia, Bering Sea, the Bering Strait, and the Chukchi Sea to the west, and the Beaufort Sea and the Arctic Ocean to the north.
Because it extends into the Eastern Hemisphere very close to Asia, it is technically both the westernmost and easternmost state in the United States, as well as also being the northernmost. It is also the largest by a significant degree.
