Groups that supported a strong Federal government include the Federalist Party, which was led by Alexander Hamilton, and their supporters. During the Constitutional Convention, Federalists advocated for a strong central government with more powers granted to the federal level.
On the other hand, groups that supported states' rights include the Anti-Federalists, who believed in a more limited and decentralized government. They were concerned that a powerful Federal government would infringe upon the rights and sovereignty of individual states. Notable figures among the Anti-Federalists include Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry.
