New Orleans has been the state capital of Louisiana three times.
When the territory changed hands from the French to the British, to the Spanish and back to the French again, the government offices were in the most convenient location. In 1849, the current capital at Baton Rouge was established as a midway point between the Gulf Coast towns and the farms in the north of the state. But New Orleans was the capital again during Reconstruction (1866), because there were more Federal troops stationed there.

Why more time is required to boil pasta in denverand Colorado than in new Orleans and Louisiana?
The boiling point of any substance, including water, is dependent on two things, the temperature and the pressure. Water will boil if the temperature is high enough, or if the pressure is low enough. Colorado is at a higher altitude than Louisiana, so there is less air pressure in Colorado. The lower pressure in Colorado means that not as high of a temperature is required to bring water to a boil than in Louisiana. (New Orleans is in Louisiana, so they can be treated as the same place in this case). The result is that boiling point of water in Louisiana is about 212 degrees Fahrenheit, while it is about 202 degrees Fahrenheit in Colorado. Notice that the water in Colorado is boiling at a lower temperature. More time is require to cook it because the water that it is being cooked in is not as hot as the boiling water in Louisiana.

For most people, it was. But the term "depression" describes an economic condition, not an emotional one. Any "depression" is a strong decrease in the amount of economic activity in a country or region, leading to lower production, lower employment, and lower capital investment.
