Founded in 1718 by two French-Canadian brothers for French King Louis XIV, New Orleans grew from its roots as a Euro-Caribbean port city at the nexus of North, Central & South America. Situated at the bottom of the Mississippi River Delta, the city became 'Paris on the Mississippi', the fashionable cultural capital of the American South.
