    The document outlines the emergence and evolution of America's early political parties from the late 18th century through the 1850s. It shows that after the ratification of the Constitution, the Federalists and Anti-Federalists formed the first coalitions, which later split into the Democratic-Republicans, Whigs, and National Republicans. In the 1850s, the Whigs split along regional lines as third parties like the Republicans and Free Soil emerged on the national stage.
