Question

How are the political divisions in Louisiana unique compared to other US states?

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

In Louisiana, we call counties PARISHES. It is the only state to do so.

Answer 2

Two political organizational units unique to Louisiana were implemented during this experimental period: the parish system and the police jury system. In 1807 the territorial legislature replaced the twelve countries created shortly after the Louisiana purchases with nineteen civil parishes.
