THE FLEUR DE LIS': In French, Fleur de lis' literally means "lily flower". Traditionally, it has been used to represent French royalty, and in that sense it is said to signify perfection, light, and life. It may come as no surprise that an emblem found all over the state of Louisiana has its roots in a flower from French culture, stemming from the French colonization of the Americas, particularly present day Louisiana.

AMERICAN PIRATE: On September 2, 1814, Captain Nicholas Lockyer, commander of the British Warship, Sophia, arrived at Barataria to offer Jean Lafitte protection of his pirate kingdom, $30,000 in gold and the rank of Captain in the Royal Navy if he would lead the English forces through the swamps and assist in their attack on New Orleans. Lafitte said, "You shall have an answer in two weeks." As the Sophia sailed away Lafitte turned to his brother, Dominique You and said, "They assume I am a pirate from France who will do anything for a reward. They have no idea with whom they are dealing with, nor do they realize I am an American!"

KEEP CALM...DRINK RUM: Rum /rəm/ an alcoholic liquor distilled from sugar-cane residues or molasses. Rum was cheap to transport and became a staple export in the 1700's. This meant many of the ships attacked by pirates were laden with barrels of Rum, ripe for the taking. They could be sold for a pretty price, but pirates tended to drink a fair chunk of this kind of loot! In keeping the pirate spirit alive, raise your rum-filled glass and toast the wild swashbucklers who came before us!

THE JOLLY ROGER: The "Pirate Brand" has long been tied to the skull and crossbones. Historically, the skull and crossbones symbol was used by pirate ships to inform the targets they’re about to attack.
