What two political parties emerged during
Washington's presidency? Explain each
parties beliefs.

Democratic-Republicans and Federalists  

Explanation:

The Federalists wanted a strong central government and a loose interpretation of the Constitution. The Democratic-Republicans favored states' rights more than a central government and they had a strict interpretation of the Constitution. Another big difference was that the Federalists encouraged commerce and manufacturing, while Democratic-Republicans did not. Though these two parties emerged, Washington opposed political parties all together.
