Cajuns are a group of people primarily found in the southern region of Louisiana, known for their unique culture, language, and traditions. They are descendants of the Acadians, French settlers who were expelled from Canada in the 18th century. Cajun culture is characterized by its vibrant music, delicious cuisine, and strong community ties. The Cajun language, a dialect of French, is still spoken by many in the region, although English is more common today. Cajun cuisine features dishes like gumbo, jambalaya, and crawfish étouffée, which reflect the area's rich agricultural and fishing heritage.
