The British kicked out the acadiens
Acadians enjoy a variety of activities for fun, including traditional music and dance, festivals, food gatherings, sports like hockey and soccer, outdoor activities such as hiking and fishing, and enjoying the natural beauty of their surroundings. They also take pride in their cultural heritage and often engage in activities that promote and preserve Acadian identity.
Yes! Very much so. French maritimers are called "Acadiens", which when pronounced in French with a French- maritime accent sounds like "ah-cadge-yens". Hundreds of years ago, the English Canadian government punished a good number of Acadiens by sending them away to the nearest French colony- which at the time was Louisiana (named after King Louis 16th of France). The word "Cajun" is a bastardization of the word "Acadiens". Many of the last names in Louisiana can also be found in the Canadian maritimes today. Few people in Louisiana still speak French, as Louisiana was later purchased by English speaking people, however, Canadian Acadiens still speak French (for the most part).

Cajuns is the term that describes French Canadians in Louisiana. The term refers to the descendants of French-speaking residents of what are now the Maritime provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island in eastern Canada. Cajuns will be called les Acadiens or les Cadiens ("the Acadians") in French since the above-mentioned region historically was called Acadie ("Acadia").
Well I don't know about Texas specifically but the Cajuns in Louisiana and the southern USA migrated from Eastern Canada. In Canada they were (and still are) known as Acadiens, and their flag is the French flag with a yellow star in the upper left hand corner. The Acadiens are people who came from France in the 17th century, I believe.
French is primarily spoken in the United States in the state of Louisiana, particularly in the city of New Orleans. There are also smaller communities of French speakers in other parts of Louisiana, as well as in Maine, Vermont, and parts of Louisiana. Additionally, French is taught in schools and universities across the country.
