Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Anti-Federalist believed that a strong government would be dominated by the wealthy or become a monarchy of sorts. They wanted a Bill of Rights.While Federalists believed, on the other hand, that a strong central government would be best as a strong central government would represent the nation to other countries. A Bill of Rights to them seemed unnecessary, as it would limit the rights of the people, as opposed to protecting them.
