The Federalists and Anti-Federalists were the two main factions in the debate over the ratification of the U.S. Constitution in the late 18th century. Federalists, including figures like Alexander Hamilton and James Madison, advocated for a strong central government and supported the Constitution as a means to unify the states and maintain order. In contrast, Anti-Federalists, such as Patrick Henry and George Mason, opposed the Constitution fearing it would create a powerful central authority that could threaten individual liberties and state sovereignty. This debate ultimately led to the addition of the Bill of Rights to address concerns about protecting individual freedoms.
