D: Federalists favored a strong central government and Democrat-Republicans favored a limited central government.

Respuesta :

the answer is D.

explanation:

federalists were for a very strong and very controlling government. democrats and republicans had more of a “laizzes- faire” attitude. they supported a more limited government so the people would be more free. america is considered “free” because it’s a democratic republic, instead of being run by federalists.
The answer could be either B or D but it would more likely be D .
