How did the breakup of the democratic republican party affect american democracy

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The breakup of the democratic-republican party affected American democracy in the following way.

After the political party of Thomas Jefferson and other antifederalists had its time on power to rule the United States, the republican-democratic party split after the US election of 1824.  It affected American democracy in that the First Political System ended and citizens had two more political options to vote for: the National Republicans that changed its named years later to the Whig Party and the Democratic Party. Old factions reemerge into the Second Political System of the US.

Answer 2

The Federalist Party originated in opposition to the Democratic-Republican Party in America during President George Washington’s first administration. Known for their support of a strong national government, the Federalists emphasized commercial and diplomatic harmony with Britain following the signing of the 1794 Jay Treaty. The party split over negotiations with France during President John Adams’s administration, though it remained a political force until its members passed into the Democratic and the Whig parties in the 1820s. Despite its dissolution, the party made a lasting impact by laying the foundations of a national economy, creating a national judicial system and formulating principles of foreign policy.
