2024 Map of Empire

USGS Topo · Published 2024

About this map

Empire stands at the northern edge of a landscape defined by the intricate hydrology of the Mississippi Delta, where the state lines of Arkansas and Louisiana meet. The terrain is a complex network of slow-moving waterways and wetlands, characterized by the winding path of Lafourche Bayou and the broader Boeuf River. Local history is anchored by rural landmarks such as Green Grove Cem and Millers Chapel Cem, which serve as permanent markers of the area's long-standing farming communities. The survey details the significant water management features of the region, including oxbow-like formations such as Hubbard Brake and several smaller tributaries like Fleschmans Bayou and Caney Bayou. This drainage system is essential to the agricultural productivity of the surrounding flats, which are crisscrossed by a dense grid of section roads and parish lines.
