Answer:

\boxed{\boxed {\sf B. \ Federal \ leaders \ would \ overpower \ the \ the \ states \ and \ ignore \ the \ rights \ of \ citizens}}

Explanation:

The Anti-Federalists were a group in the 1700s led by Thomas Jefferson that believed:

  • In smaller states not government, not a centralized government
  • In a Bill of Rights to protect individual freedoms
  • Amending the Articles of Confederation instead of ratifying the Constitution
  • A strict constitutional interpretation

Communism wouldn't develop until the 19th century, so choice A isn't correct. They weren't really concerned about the nation splitting or foreign affairs, so we can eliminate choice C and D.

However, they were concerned about the government becoming too powerful and trampling on state and individual liberties. So, choice B is correct.
