What are the differences between the two political parties (Federalist Party & Democratic-Republican Party) that emerged in the late 1700s?

Asked by AngelOfLove

Answer (2)

One early and divisive difference between the Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans was how they approached Britain and France. The Federalists believed that American foreign policy should favor British interests, while the Democratic-Republicans wanted to strengthen ties with the French. The Democratic-Republicans supported the government that had taken over France after the revolution of 1789.

The Federalist Party favored a strong central government and close ties with Britain, while the Democratic-Republican Party advocated for limited government and support for France. These parties emerged in the late 1700s and were shaped by differing views on the Constitution, economic policies, and foreign relations. Over time, their conflicts defined early American politics and influenced future parties.
