A town that is said to be particularly separate even among Americans.

Louisiana State

It used to be a French colony, but became an American territory when it was sold to the United States.

The combination of French, Spanish, African and Caribbean cultures creates a very unique culture even in the United States.

The local residents are very proud of their culture, so there are many strange aspects that make you feel like they play separately from other American states.

Let’s pick out some representative ones:

– French has a higher proportion of second languages ​​than Spanish.

– The name of the local administrative unit is also Parish, not County.

– The legal system, unlike the federal government or other states, uses the continental law system rather than Anglo-American law.

– The state government’s official system of units is metric, not imperial.
