In the 1790's Alexander Hamilton and the Federalist Party favored a strong centralized federal government and wanted the individual states to ratify the constitution, even though it meant the states had to give up some of their powers to the federal government.

The Federalist Party supported a strong central government. This was in direct opposition to the Democratic Republicans who believed a strong central government spelled trouble for all. They felt the only way to prevent the government from becoming too big and dangerous was to make the powers of the states greater.
