The Republicans wished for a free society on the basis that freedom was to be non-restricted from nobody at all costs. The Federalists desired for a society where the majority could decide the best possible situation for each and every person. The freedom of America existed up until the early 1900’s (1913), when the Federal reserve was first introduced. Ever since, America has been mainly composed of federalism, authoritarianism, collectivism, and certain aspects of fascism. The amounts of money gained due to the creation of these ideologies is based on the amount of debt the Federal Reserve possessed each year. By the year 1796, both the Federalist and Republican parties were near full formation and were (extremely) well-developed. Now, neither …show more content…
The party became associated with the first President, George Washington. Now, even though Washington made his best efforts to try and avoid dealing in partisan activities, the idea was cut short after some time. The so called “belief” that the United States had much to learn from Great Britain, created a new government in which was modeled after the government of England. This new form of government called for a solid, centralized bank with a federal constitution. On the other hand, the Republican Party was already intact when the Federalist Party was just coming into the picture. As such, the majority of Republicans knew that their relationship with Great Britain could only be one-sided; the fight for independence was real. In other terms, their strong relationship (if continued with Great Britain) would result in America’s submission to being held “under Great Britain’s level” of power/authority. The party craved for complete separation from everyone else (independence). They truly believed that when states received more political power, it would only create stronger relationships with the federal government. As a result, the country would be made a much safer and restored place for the culture of people. In the end, the Federalist Party lasted for a relatively short time period.

The Federalist party understood that there could be only one true “sovereign” in a political system; One ultimate authoritative measure. Each individual would be forced to obey orders given to them, without being allowed the ability to appeal. At the time, this method was said to be the only effective way in creating a successful form of centralized government. The first key step in this process was to persuade the sovereign states to agree on the creation of the Articles of Confederation. Next, the document would call for (and further establish) a close alliance between/of independent states. The term denoted as the establishment of this centralized form of federal government is known (in current day) as the “confederacy.” Lastly, the articles would represent the states method of acting together instead of a total form of government acting directly responsible for the people. In time, the Republican and Federalist parties were both able to create a form of government, in which did not rely on the dependability or virtue of the public. Throughout this new federal system, both the states and the national government were left absent from total sovereignty. The visons of American culture and politics were indeed changed

The constitution's adoption in 1787 was just one of several challenges the young country confronted. Financial instability was once a fresh phenomena due to a federal government that was severely indebted and lacked the actual revenue to pay it off. Additionally, the federal government lacked the power to levy taxes, which suggests that citizens were hesitant to do so, which posed a serious challenge for it. The new Republican leaders lacked political cohesion because of political differences. The federalist party, which supported a powerful central government, was led by Alexander Hamilton.
Arising from the smoke of the French Revolution was a wave of Jacobin ideologies arriving on the shores of the American continent. During this diffusion of ideas, there were two primary political parties trying to gain power in America: the Democratic-Republicans and the Federalists.

The Federalist and Republican Parties surfaced during George Washington’s term as President of the United States. During Washington’s term, Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson’s opposing views helped with the creation of these parties. Both had the best intentions for the newly founded United States, but their thinking went in different directions. The disagreements centered on the amount of control the national government had and the capabilities of the American people to govern themselves. The Federalist Party believed there should be a strong central government at the expense of the states’ rights, the government should be run by wealthy, highly-educated people encouraging manufacturing and trade, and the Constitution should be used as a guide and interpreted loosely.

Following the Revolutionary War, America had just gained independance from Great Britain and needed to form a new government.

Hamilton supported England because they had more goods and services where they needed to continue trade routes.
The Democratic-Republicans followed a strict interpretation of the constitution, where Federalists believed that the document was up for interpretation, and followed a loose construction.

Essentially, they believed that the people would make poor decisions, if left to their own devices. They represented the elite and well off of society. The Democratic-Republicans thought that there should be a small central government, meaning that the power stayed with the states.
