Louisiana, in the southern U.S., is culturally diverse with influences from French, Spanish, Native American and African cultures. Bordered on the east by the Mississippi River and on the south by the Gulf of Mexico, the climate is subtropical and especially rainy in the summer.

Not surprisingly, based on its location, the state is the world’s biggest producer of crawfish in the world, but also grows cotton, sugarcane, rice, cattle, poultry, and dairy.
