Detailed explanation-1: -When the Whig Party fell apart over the issue of slavery in the 1850s, the Republican Party was created, establishing the modern two-party system of Republicans and Democrats.
Detailed explanation-2: -In foreign affairs, the party advocated western expansion and tended to favor France over Britain, though the party’s pro-French stance faded after Napoleon took power. The Democratic-Republicans were strongest in the South and the western frontier, and weakest in New England.
Detailed explanation-3: -Second Party System: 1828–1854 Jackson’s presidency split the Democratic-Republican Party-“Jacksonians” became the Democratic Party; those following the leadership of John Quincy Adams became the “National Republicans", (no connection to the later Republican Party that exists today).
