The Anti-Federalists were primarily concerned with issues related to the balance of power between the national and state governments in the United States. They opposed the ratification of the U.S. Constitution, fearing it created a strong central government that threatened individual liberties and state sovereignty. While they did not support a specific nation, their arguments were rooted in the belief that local governance was more aligned with the interests of the people compared to a distant federal authority. They advocated for a Bill of Rights to protect individual freedoms.
