New Orleans was settled by a diverse array of groups, primarily French colonists in the early 18th century, followed by Spanish settlers after the Louisiana Purchase. The city also attracted enslaved Africans, who contributed significantly to its culture and economy. Additionally, immigrants from various European countries, including Irish and Germans, settled in New Orleans, further enriching its multicultural landscape. Over time, Caribbean influences, particularly from Haiti, also played a key role in shaping the city's unique identity.
