The correct answer for the first blank is the Federalist party.
The correct answer for the second blank is the Democratic-Republican party.

In the election of 1800, Thomas Jefferson ( a Democratic-Republican) defeated John Adams ( a Federalist). This would be the beginning of the political dominance of the Democratic-Republican party in American politics. This party was focused on a smaller central government and heavily supported agriculture (farmers) and their way of life.
