Best Answer

The Democratic-Republican Party (originally founded in the 1790s by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison) eventually split into the Democratic and National Republican Parties around 1824. The modern Democratic Party is a direct descendant of the Democratic Party formed out of this split.
