Louisiana (French: Louisiane, Kréyol: Lwizyàn) is an independent state of America. It gained its independence in 1833 during Louisianan Revolution. The republic started as a colony of the Kingdom of France (1682-1791), a Provincial State of the French Republic with self government (1790-1791) and Royalist Louisiana (1791-1833). Until 1833 Louisiana included the territories of Dakota.
