Louisiana is a state in the Deep South and South Central regions of the United States.
It is the 19th-smallest by area and the 25th most populous of the 50 U.S. states.
Louisiana is bordered by the state of Texas to the west, Arkansas to the north, Mississippi to the east, and the Gulf of Mexico to the south.
A large part of its eastern boundary is demarcated by the Mississippi River.
Louisiana is the only U.S. state with political subdivisions termed parishes, which are equivalent to counties, making it one of only two U.S. states not subdivided into counties (the other being Alaska).
The state's capital is Baton Rouge, and its largest city is New Orleans.
Primary mineral localities are the cap rocks of salt domes in the southern portion of the state.
