However, there are cultural contrasts in the region. Creoles of color are found in the Cane River area below Natchitoches, where some historically owned plantations. Spanish-speaking people of partial Choctaw descent live in the old "no-man's-land" to the west of Natchitoches on the Texas/Louisiana border. Further, there are Italians, Hungarians, Czechs, Greeks, and others throughout northern Louisiana and the southeastern Florida Parishes. The over-all Anglo tone of the region has been likened to a strip quilt which—like the north Louisiana people who make them—is composed of many separate colors and textured pieces.

Northern Louisiana has culture that is like that of a strip quilt because:

  • The culture is made up of varied European backgrounds, just as the quilts are made of separate textured pieces.

A strip quilt is made up of different materials and so it has different colors and textures.

This is much like the culture of the people of Northern Louisiana because it was formed as a mixture of different European cultures such as the Spanish, the Greeks, Czechs, Hungarians and even Creoles.

We can therefore conclude that the Northern Louisiana culture is like a strip quilt which is made up of different materials because it is made up of different European cultures.
