The main difference is the people. One is a culture on independence and one is a culture of dependence. That existed well before oil or even the industrial revolution. I am not trying to make a political statement here, philosophically they have different views of the role of government. Louisiana also started out with an aristocracy that did not exist in Texas, which furthered that modern philosophy.
