Crimea is an unincorporated community in Tensas Parish, Louisiana, United States.[1]

[edit]

The small community was referenced in the parody news website The Daily Currant describing that American patriots were protecting the community from invasion.[2] This was a parody of the conflict in Crimea, a region disputed between Russia and Ukraine in an escalation of situations during the intervention.
