Many individuals made a big difference in American history. The creation of political parties was a big event.

Political Parties

When political parties were created, they were made to show the differences in thoughts within our nation's government. Thomas Jefferson created the Republican party because he believed in strong state governments and that people should have political power. Alexander Hamilton started the Federalists party because he believed in a strong central government and only the wealthy and well educated should lead.
