Option A

The statehood process of Louisiana undertaken in the year of 1812, was an important part of the US History especially for the people of Louisiana. Statehood basically refers to the act of achieving the status of being recognized as an independent state. In 1812 when the statehood of Louisiana was undertaken, it became the 18th state of United States of America on the day of April 30^{th} 1812.

The most important change that accompanied all this was granting the citizens of that state similar rights to a normal US Citizen. The people of Louisiana were not granted freedom or the right to negotiate with Spain about its borders. In addition, the people did not have to accept the supremacy of the US Constitution, but instead were allowed to follow the Preamble for the Louisiana constitution.
