Answer 1

Answer: b. the creation of political parties

Step-by-step explanation:

The division between the two founding fathers Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson led to the creation of political parties by the two men who had different views on what the Federal Government should be like.

These parties were the Federalist parties and the Democratic-Republican parties. The Federalist Party under Hamilton championed the need for a strong central government whilst the Democratic-Republican party of Jefferson supported a more republican form of Government with a central government that was not too dominant.
