There were 2 main political parties back in the late 1700's and early1800's. The first one was the Federalists. The Federalists were wealthy business men. They were led by Alexander Hamilton. The second party was the Democratic-Republicans. They were mostly small farm owners. The Republicans were led by Thomas Jefferson.
