What were the Political parties of wartime presidents?

There is a little history to this because it's complicated.When the country began, there were no political parties. The Founding Fathers mostly split into two groups, which eventually became political parties- the Federalists and Anti-Federalists. George Washington, as first president, refused to join one of these groups/parties (although he tended to agree with the Federalists). After him, the first several presidents were all Federalists or Anti-Federalists. During this time, the Anti-Federalists were renamed the Democratic-Republicans, and eventually just Democrats- which they still are, to the present day.After the War of 1812, the Federalist party disbanded. The Democratic Party then split into two groups- those who supported President Andrew Jackson, and those who opposed him. The opposition broke away and started a new party, the Whig Party, named after an old British political party. There were four Whig presidents (Harrison, Tyler, Taylor, and Fillmore- although Tyler was banished from the party shortly after becoming president). The Whig Party eventually broke apart over the issue of slavery; the anti-slavery ex-Whigs then started a new party, the Republican Party, shortly before the Civil War.Since the Civil War, only Democrats and Republicans have been President, although Teddy Roosevelt's "Progressive Party" came surprisingly close to winning in 1912.So the answer to the question is:FederalistsAnti-Federalists/Democratic-Republicans/Democrats (I'm counting them all as the same party)WhigsRepublicansPlus George Washington, who, as stated above, was not a member of any party.
