The term 'Acadian' is related to the term 'CAJUN', which is a cultural group of people living in the U.S. state of Louisiana. The Acadians were French settlers who arrived in the area in the 18th century and were later forced out by the British. They eventually settled in Louisiana, where their culture blended with that of the local Native Americans, creating the CAJUN culture. The term 'Acadian' is still used today to refer to the descendants of these original settlers.
