Answer:

D. Partisan conflicts were part of United States history almost from the beginning.

Explanation:

The conclusion that can be drawn from the table is that "Partisan conflicts were part of United States history almost from the beginning."

The above statement is evident from the fact that in each of the issues and events, there exist conflicts between two major groups. And considering the dates of these issues and events, and it can be concluded that it occurred in the early days of the United States of America formation. Hence, option D is correct.

Option A is not correct because while the Federalists favored a strong federal government, they have plans on how to achieve it.

Option B is not correct because there is not enough information or evidence to prove that Republicans occasionally showed a willingness to compromise on states' rights.

The option C is not correct because there is nothing like Washington in the table
