State of Louisiana

Spain sent explorers to the region in the early 1500s. In 1682 Sieur de la Salle claimed the land for France. In 1763, after the French and Indian Wars, Louisiana was ceded to Spain. France eventually gained control again, and it was sold by Napoleon to the U.S. in 1803. The southern part of the region became the state of Louisiana in 1812. The Civil War saw Louisiana joining the Confederacy; New Orleans was captured by U.S.Admiral Farragut in 1862. Reconstruction was hard on Louisiana. The discovery of oil and natural gas turned the situation around, and by the twentieth century the economy had improved greatly.

The capital of Louisiana is Baton Rouge. Other large cities are New Orleans, Shreveport, Lafayette and Lake Charles. The 2005 population stood at 4,523,628. Offshore oil and sulfur are two important products, as well as coal products, salt, and lumber and wood. Sugar cane, rice, sweet potatoes, pecans, corn, and cotton are major food crops.

Tourism is an important industry. New Orleans, with its French Quarter and fantastic Mardi Gras celebration, draws many visitors from all over the world. Louisiana has many historic plantation homes which are open for tours, and Cajun Country is another great attraction. Louisiana is especially famous for its restaurants and food specialties.
