The secret organization of nativists was known as the "The Know-Nothing Party". The party was formed in the 1850's to protect the rights of people who were born in America in opposition to immigrants. Nativism discriminated against people thought of as “outsiders” because they differed for cultural, ethnic, religious, or political reasons. Members of The Know-Nothing Party feared moral, economic, and political dangers that immigrants could possibly bring to America.
The Republican Party emerged in the mid-1850s with a central antislavery philosophy. It gained popularity in the North by opposing the spread of slavery into new territories. Its success culminated in the election of Abraham Lincoln as president in 1860.
