Explanation:

The Federalist Party was an American political party that was effective in the period from 1792 to 1816, with some manifestations of it lasting until the 1820s. Until 1801 the federalists controlled the federal government. The party was founded by Alexander Hamilton, and advocated establishing a fiscally responsible government with a strong nationalist sense. The political party in the opposition was the Democrat-Republican party.  Thus, the federalists defended the prerogatives of the federal government against the "rights of states" advocated by Democratic Republican Party.
