Baton Rouge, is the capital of Louisiana, a state of the United States of America. As of the 2000 census, its population was 227,818 and as of 2004, the latest U.S. Census Bureau estimate puts the city at 224,097. Baton Rouge is historically the second largest city in Louisiana behind New Orleans but the catastrophic effects of Hurricane Katrina have, at least temporarily, reduced the population of New Orleans such that Baton Rouge is the largest city in the state of Louisiana (However, it is believed that the parish of Jefferson, which is located right on the outskirts of New Orleans, will eventually exceed that of Baton Rouge as evacuees continue to leave the area and return to metropolitan New Orleans or their home regions. Jefferson was effected by Hurricane Katrina as well as their pre-Katrina population of 455,466 but Jefferson has rebounded much faster than New Orleans since the devastation in Jefferson was not as severe and has a current population of 420,000 to 440,000). The Greater Baton Rouge area as of 2000 had a population of 602,894, but has grown to over 750,000 since the 2000 census. Baton Rouge is the parish seat of East Baton Rouge Parish. Baton Rouge is home to the main campus of Louisiana State University and to Southern University. Baton Rouge is also home to The Shaw Group, a Fortune 500 Company. Baton Rouge also goes by its English translation, "Red Stick." Like other capital cities, its region is called the "Capital Area."-

You may know that we have 50 states in the U.S.  Washington, D.C., is of course our capital city.  You are right that the "D.C." stands for District of Columbia.  However, the two - "Washington" and "District of Columbia" - are the same thing, geographically.\n\nThere are no other "districts" - everyplace else is a state.\n\nNot a great answer, I know, but something Americans (I hope) understand.  Hard to explain to a non-American.\n\nTry a couple of websites:\nwww.washington.org (tourism website)\nwww.dc.gov (local city government website)

The term "District of Columbia" is derived from an old poetic name for the United States, Columbia, which has fallen out of common use since the early 20th century.\n\nWashington, D.C. is the capital city of the United States of America, the federal district containing the city of Washington. The seat of the federal government is often located in a Federal District, so that no single individual component can exercise undue influence over federal affairs
