	Florida Cracker Florida crackers were colonial-era British and American pioneer settlers in what is now the U.S. state of Florida; the term is also applied to their descendants, to the present day, and their subculture among white Southerners. The first crackers arrived in 1763 after Spain traded Florida to Great Britain following the latter's victory over France in the Seven Years' War, though much of traditional Florida cracker folk culture dates to the 19th century. Historical usage The term ''cracker'' was in use during the Elizabethan era to describe braggarts and blowhards. The original root of this is the Middle English word , meaning 'entertaining conversation' (which survives as a verb, as in "to crack a joke"); the noun in the Gaelicized spelling ''craic'' also retains currency in Ireland and to some extent in Scotland and Northern England, in a sense of 'fun' or 'entertainment' especially in a group setting. ''Cracker'' is documented in William Shakespeare's '' King John'', Act II, S ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
