Question

France is trying to expand its economy and would like to lease a port from the United States on our Pacific coast.

Answer 1

The Federalists are advocates who think the American foreign policy should favor British interests while the Democratic-Republicans are advocates who wanted to strengthen ties with the French.

The Federalist Party was headed by Alexander Hamilton and John Adams and they called for more national government control. They believed that with the national government having more power than states, they could create a better and more equal United States of America. One of the things they called for was national government regulation of the trade between states. The Federalists believed that such regulation would better protect the rights of states which were otherwise small or in a poorer position to negotiate.

The Federalists and the Anti-Federalists argued primarily over the issue of the strength of the national government in the newly formed United States. The Federalists sought to strengthen the power of the national government whereas the Anti-Federalists sought to strengthen the power of state governments.
