Question

First American political parties emerged from the conflict between:
Choose one answer.
a. slave states and free states
b. the older Eastern states and the new Western states
c. business and labor
d. advocates of the interests of small landowners and those favoring commercial and wealthy interests

Answer 1

Technically it goes even further back, to those who support a larger government and those that don't. Before the Constitution was even written. I would assume that D would be the answer? A and B don't make sense. C is a very small part of why parties split even further, but D would probably be the reason.
