Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two political parties that emerged in the late 1780s were the Federalists, led by Alexander Hamilton, and the Jeffersonian Republicans, led by Thomas Jefferson (also known as the Democratic-Republicans). The Federalists favored a strong central government and supported industry and commerce, while the Jeffersonian Republicans favored limited government, individual rights, and an agrarian society. The other options listed are incorrect: the Washingtonian Democrats and the Antifederalists were not major political parties, and the Whig Party did not emerge until the 1830s.
