The U.S. state of Louisiana is divided into 64 parishes in the same way that 48 of the other states of the United States are divided into counties (Alaska is divided into boroughs and census areas).
Thirty-eight parishes are governed by a council called the Police Jury. The other twenty-six have various other forms of government, including: president-council, council-manager, parish commission, and consolidated parish/city.
