how were developments in the west tied into national politics in the 1790s? why did the federalists steadily lose ground to the republicans?

Respuesta :

1.- The Political Crisis of the 1790s

-          The 1790s brought a division to the Federalists, splitting them into two irreconcilable factions over the issues of financial policy and then later the French Revolution.

-          The views offered by Jefferson hoped that the United States remain an agricultural nation governed by local and state officials.

-          The views offered by Alexander Hamilton, on the other hand, hoped that the United States would become a strong national government and an economy based on manufacturing.

Jefferson set out to reverse many of the federalist policies, including those in the west.

- Jefferson was the champion of encouraging the western settlement, and this continued when he became president.

- Jefferson led the drive to lower land prices for farmers and all Western settlers.


2.- The Federalist Party was one of the first political parties in the United States.. Why did it lose ground and die in front of the Republicans: For two main reasons: First, it was opposed to the democratic spirit of the time. Second, it died because of the War of 1812.

By development in the West, we mean Industrial Revolution.

Prior to the Industrial Revolution, production was driven mainly by slaves. The discovery of newer and better methods of production created tension between South America and North America.

North America having discovered machines became more pro-freedom while the South remained largely pro-slavery. This culminated in the American Civil War between 1861 and 1865.
