I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ke kenekulia 18, ua hoʻopau ʻo Rūsia i kāna neʻe ʻana "hālāwai me ka lā". ʻO ke kuleana nui i ka hoʻolālā ʻana i nā palena hikina o ka mokuʻāina i hoʻokani ʻia e nā huakaʻi ʻelua i alakaʻi ʻia e Vitus Bering (1681 - 1741). Ua hōʻoia ka luna o ka moku kaua ʻo ia wale nō ma ke ʻano he kāpena mākaukau, akā ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻonohonoho a mea hoʻolako pono hoʻi. Ua lilo nā mea i hoʻokō ʻia o nā huakaʻi ʻelua i mea holomua i ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻana o Siberia a me ka Hikina hikina a ua kaulana ka poʻe ʻōiwi o Denmark ma ke ʻano he hoʻokele Lūkini nui.
1. I ka hoʻohanohano ʻana iā Bering, ʻaʻole wale nā mokupuni ʻo Commander, ke kai, kahi ʻahu, kahi noho, kahi kiki, kahi aniani a me kahi mokupuni i kapa ʻia, akā he wahi biogeographic nui kekahi. Aia ʻo Beringia ka ʻaoʻao hikina o Siberia, Kamchatka, Alaska a me nā mokupuni he nui.
2. Ua kapa ʻia ka inoa o ka māka uaki Denemaka kaulana ma hope o Vitus Bering.
3. Ua hānau ʻia a hānai ʻia ʻo Vitus Bering ma Denmark, ua loaʻa kahi aʻo naval ma Holland, akā lawelawe ʻo ia, koe wale nō kekahi mau makahiki ʻōpio, ma ka moku Lūkini Lūkini.
4. E like me nā haole he nui i ka lawelawe Lūkini, hele mai ʻo Bering mai kahi ʻohana hanohano akā wāwahi ʻia.
5. No ʻewalu mau makahiki, ua heʻe ʻo Bering i nā kūlana o nā kūlana ʻehā o ke kāpena i kū i kēlā manawa i ka ʻauwaʻa Lūkia. ʻOiaʻiʻo, i mea e lilo ai i kāpena o ka pae 1, pono iā ia e hoʻouna i kahi palapala haʻalele.
6. ʻO ka huakaʻi mua ʻo Kamchatka ka huakaʻi mua ma ka mōʻaukala o Rūsia, nona nā pahu hopu ʻepekema wale nō: e ʻimi a palapala ʻāina i nā kahakai a ʻike i ke kahakai ma waena o Eurasia a me ʻAmelika. Ma mua o kēlā, ua lawe ʻia nā noiʻi ākea āpau ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana ʻelua o nā hoʻolaha.
7. ʻAʻole ʻo Bering ka mea hoʻomaka o ka First Expedition. Ua kauoha ʻia ʻo ia e hoʻolako a hoʻouna iā Peter I. Ua hāʻawi ʻia ʻo Bering i nā alakaʻi i ka Admiralty, ʻaʻole i manaʻo ka mōʻī. Ua kākau ʻo ia i nā ʻōkuhi iā Bering me kona lima ponoʻī.
8. He kūpono kūpono ke kāhea ʻana i ke Kahua ʻo Bering ʻo ke Selrait Semyon Dezhnev, ka mea i ʻike iā ia i ke kenekulia 17. Eia naʻe, ua paʻa ka hōʻike a Dezhnev i loko o nā millstones bureaucratic a ua loaʻa wale ma hope o kā Bering huakaʻi.
9. ʻO ka ʻāpana kai o ka Hōʻike mua (e hele ana mai Kamchatka a i ke kaha ʻo Bering, e holo ana i ke kai Arctic a hoʻi) i hala 85 mau lā. A i mea e kiʻi ai i ka ʻāina mai St. Petersburg a Okhotsk, lawe ʻo Bering a me kāna hui i 2.5 mau makahiki. Akā ua hoʻonohonoho ʻia kahi palapala ʻāina kikoʻī o ke ala mai ka ʻaoʻao ʻEulopa o Lūkia a hiki i Siberia me kahi wehewehe o nā alanui a me nā noho.
10. Ua kūleʻa ka huakaʻi. ʻO ka palapala ʻāina o nā kahakai a me nā mokupuni i hōʻuluʻulu ʻia e Bering a me kāna mau lālā ma lalo. ʻO ia ka palapala ʻāina mua o ka Moana Pākīpika ʻAkau i huki ʻia e nā poʻe ʻEulopa. Ua paʻi hou ʻia ma Palisa a me Ladana.
11. I kēlā mau lā, ʻimi ʻilihuna loa ʻo Kamchatka. I mea e hiki aku ai i ka Moana Pākīpika, ua lawe ʻia nā ukana o ka huakaʻi e nā ʻīlio ma uka o ka peninsula holoʻokoʻa ma kahi o 800 mile ka mamao. I ka lihi hema o Kamchatka mai kahi o ka hoʻolilo aia kekahi 200 km, a hiki ke uhi ʻia e ke kai.
12. ʻO ka huakaʻi ʻelua ka hana holoʻokoʻa a Bering. Ua hoʻomohala ʻo ia i kāna hoʻolālā, kaohi i ka lako a lawelawe i nā pilikia o nā limahana - ʻoi aku ma mua o 500 mau loea i hāʻawi ʻia.
13. Ua hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ʻo Bering e ka ʻoiaʻiʻo fanatical. ʻAʻole makemake ʻia kēia hiʻohiʻona i nā mana o Siberia, ka mea i lana ka manaʻo e loaʻa ka waiwai nui i ka wā e hoʻolako ʻia ai kahi huakaʻi nui. ʻO ia ke kumu i lilo ai ʻo Bering i manawa e hōʻole ai i nā ʻōlelo hōʻino i loaʻa iā ia a me ka kaohi ʻana i ke kaʻina holoʻokoʻa o nā lako no kāna mau papa.
14. ʻOi aku ka pīhoihoi o ka huakaʻi ʻelua. ʻO kāna manaʻo e mākaʻikaʻi iā Kamchatka, Iāpana, nā kapakai o ka Moana Arctic a me ka ʻĀkau ʻAmelika Pakipika i kapa ʻia ʻo Great Northern Expedition. ʻO ka hoʻomākaukau ʻana o nā lako no nā makahiki he ʻekolu - pono ke lawe ʻia kēlā me kēia kui ma ka ʻaoʻao holoʻokoʻa o Lūkia.
15. Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky i ka wā o ka huakaʻi ʻelua Bering. Ma mua o ka huakaʻi, ʻaʻohe wahi i noho ai ma ke kai kūʻono ʻo Petropavlovsk.
16. Hiki ke noʻonoʻo ʻia nā hopena o ka Huakaʻi ʻElua he pōʻino. Ua hōʻea nā luina Lūkini i ʻAmelika, akā no ka pau ʻana o ka lako, ua koi ʻia lākou e huli koke i hope. Ua eo kekahi o nā moku. ʻO ka moku, nona ka kāpena ʻo A. Chirikov, ʻoiai ua nalowale kekahi hapa o nā limahana, ua hiki i Kamchatka. Akā ʻo "Saint Peter", kahi a Bering e huakaʻi nei, ua hāʻule i nā mokupuni ʻo Aleutian. Ua make ʻo Bering a me ka hapa nui o nā luina i ka pōloli a me nā maʻi. 46 wale nō ka poʻe i hoʻi mai ka huakaʻi.
17. Ua hōʻino ʻia ka huakaʻi ʻelua e ka hoʻoholo ʻana e ʻimi i nā mokupuni ʻo Samia ʻole, aia he kālā kālā maoli. Ma muli o kēia, ua holo nā moku o ka huakaʻi, ma kahi o ke 65th kaulike, ma ke 45, kahi e hoʻolōʻihi ai i ko lākou ala i ke kahakai ʻAmelika kokoke ʻelua manawa.
18. Ua hana ke ʻano o ka wā i ka holo pono ʻole o Bering a me Chirikov - ua uhi ʻia ka holo holoʻokoʻa me nā ao a ʻaʻole hiki i nā luina ke hoʻoholo i ko lākou mau kaʻina.
19. Kuekene ka wahine a Bering. I loko o nā keiki he ʻumi i hānau ʻia i ka male, ʻeono i make i ka wā kamaliʻi.
20. Ma hope o ka loaʻa ʻana o ka lua kupapaʻu o Bering a me ka hemo ʻana o ke koena o ka luina, ua hoʻololi ʻia ia, he kūʻē i ka manaʻo lehulehu, ʻaʻole i make ʻo scurvy - paʻa pono kāna mau niho.
