Answer:
I agree more with the positions of the Federalists, as a strong central government was necessary for the economic and political development of the United States in the 1800s. Without this system, the United States of America would not have succeed as they had in international issues, because of lacking of a strong central governing body to manage those issues.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Federalist Party was active from 1792 to 1816. It was created during the first Washington administration to support the fiscal policy of the Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton, being the party in favor of a strong federal state.
Its first leaders were John Adams and Alexander Hamilton, but their great reference is George Washington. Of all its members who exerted the greatest long-term influence was the President of the Supreme Court of the United States, John Marshall.
It was opposed to the Democratic-Republican Party of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison.
From 1793 to 1815, covering most of the period in which the party existed, France and the United Kingdom were protagonists of serious conflicts: the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars. These conflicts continually threatened America, and the two political parties distinguished themselves in their attitude from their protagonists. Federalists admired and favored the United Kingdom, and Democratic Republicans opposed the British monarchy and supported republican France (until the inauguration of Napoleon as emperor in 1804). After 1804 Republicans continued to oppose the United Kingdom but were more hostile to France because of Napoleon's rejection of republicanism.
