The Federalists and Democratic-Republicans were the first American political factions, with differing views on government roles.
The first American political factions to be formed before the Constitution was ratified were the Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans. The Federalists, led by Alexander Hamilton, supported a strong central government while the Democratic-Republicans, led by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, advocated for a limited central government and emphasized state autonomy.
These factions emerged in the mid-1790s in response to differing views on the government's role and the aftermath of significant events like the French Revolution and the Whiskey Rebellion.
