Yeah, you've actually got that right even if your post sounds kinda autisty.
I grew up eating cajun style gumbo and the only kind of gumbo I see comerically is creole style gumbo.
Pic related is what I grew up eating: cajun style

Gumbo
Depending on what family is making it, it can be more like a stew than a soup. My family makes it Cajun style, more soupy, with a thick dark brown broth, and a potluck of deer sausage, chicken, shrimp, oysters, blue crab, boiled hen eggs, chicken gizzards and sometimes (but not always) okra. My family tends to split the ingredients between land and sea rather than all together. Served with rice ofc
Best fucking thing on a cold night. We have it every Christmas

Loui representing again. This is about as popular a dish right after crawfish. In my experience there are two general styles, New Orleans style and Cajun style. Pic related is cajun style, which is more of a soup than a stew. Usually doesn't have peppers and is not as heavy on the okra as New Orleans style. My family makes either a Turf gumbo or a seafood gumbo
>Turf
Chicken, deer or andouille sausage, chopped boiled chicken eggs, green onions, sometimes okra
>Seafood
Blue crab, shrimp, crawfish, oysters, green onions, boiled eggs, green onions, usually no okra

Some families will mix the surf and turf, but we usually keep it separate in our family for whatever reason. Always served with white rice.
