Answer:
The Anti-Federalists opposed to ratify the Constitution.
Explanation:
Antifederalism refers to the movement that opposed a strong government of the United States and that later opposed the Constitution of the United States of 1787. The old constitution, called Articles of the Confederation, gave the states more authority against the central government. Directed by Patrick Henry of Virginia, they opposed, among other things, to the new figure of the president that they feared could become a monarchy.
The federalist movement of the 1780s was motivated by the idea that the government of the nation under the Articles of Confederation was too weak, and needed to be modified or replaced. Eventually they got the government to convene a meeting to review the articles. The opponents to its rectification appeared immediately, after the meeting and the approval of the new constitution.
The opposition to federalism was composed of several elements, such as opposition to the constitution because the strong power of the national government threatened the sovereignty of states, localities and individuals, which seemed to them an attempt to disguise a "monarchical" power. Some of the antifederalists thought that the Articles of Cnfederation gave sufficient power to the central government. Others considered that, although the national government with the articles was too weak, with the Constitution it would be too strong.
