Beschreibung:

The Whig Party was a political party formed in the 1830s in the United States, emerging in opposition to President Andrew Jackson and his Democratic Party, primarily opposing what they saw as his autocratic rule and the "executive tyranny" of his administration. The Whigs promoted protective tariffs, federal funding for internal improvements, and a strong legislative branch, and they attracted support from diverse groups including industrialists in the North, planters in the South, and reformers and merchants across the country.
