The Federalist Party was one of the first two political parties organized after adoption of the US constitution. It was the party in favor of a strong central government. During the War of 1812, it was the party in opposition to the war. It finally ceased to exist in 1856, although it had been a minor player for some years before that.
The majority party is the party to which the most representatives or senators belong. The other party is the minority party.
I realize this is a standard question on someone's test, but in reality first-past-the-post voting does not always produce two-party systems. Although concern over splitting the electorate tends to consolidate parties in such a system, resulting in two major parties, there are usually minor parties waiting in the wings to become one of the major parties. In Britain, this role was played by the Liberal party, who grew in the 1980s to become a serious voice in British politics and held the balance of power after the 2010 election. In Canada, one of the major parties, the Conservatives, were practically wiped out in the 1993 election and a regional party, the Bloc Québecois, became the second largest party, and again, in 2011, the New Democratic Party, a third party, overtook the Liberal party to become the second party in Parliament.

The one-party system is not democratic at all, because there is no choice between competing parties and candidates. One-party systems are typical of communist governments and dictatorships.

Typically one party systems tend to consolidate power along a specific party philosophy that will exclude others of differing opinions and further not allow those excluded to go to another party. One party systems have some democratic aspects, rising through the party is often done with voting. However, the opinions of senior party leaders may have a very high level of influence on such votes. Specific party dogma eliminates opposing viewpoints quickly meaning that it is difficult for the party to adapt to changing environments and new technologies. Social Networks and the problem they bring to one-party regimes is a good example today. In the State of Texas in the United States of America there exists essentially a one-party situation. It is yet to be seen if the radical element of that party (called the Tea Party) can impose its agenda on the upcoming primary contests, particularly for the office of United States Senator.
One of those party will have to show which is the better canadate for both parties.
