Best Answer

Federalists favored a strong central government so that the new country would be successful. They favored paying off the national debt and establishing a national bank. Democratic Republicans, on the other hand, believed a strong government was a recipe for disaster, and every effort should be made to make sure the government didn't become too powerful.
