Answer:

Federalist Party

Step-by-step explanation:

They believed that the Constitution was a "strict" document that clearly limited the powers of the federal government. Unlike the fighting force Federalist Party, the Democratic-Republican Party argued that government did not have the right to adopt more powers to satisfy its duties under the Constitution.
