The Acadians were arranged to go to Louisiana primarily by the British authorities during the Great Expulsion (Le Grand Dérangement) in the mid-18th century. After being forcibly removed from their homes in Acadia, many Acadians sought refuge in various locations, and some were eventually directed to Louisiana, where they were encouraged to settle by the Spanish colonial government. Notable figures such as Governor Ulloa and later Governor Galvez played roles in welcoming and integrating Acadian refugees into the region.
