    At the beggining of the revolution, American were enthusiastic in support of the revolution. But, after time passed the opinion divided into two major groups: federalists and anti-federalist.

    The anti-federalists, led by Thomas Jefferson were in favor of this revolution. They tought that the French were imitating the American colonists in the desire for freedom.

    The federalists, led by Alexander Hamilton were not in favor of the French revolution. The feared mob rule and didn't approve egalitarian ideas (equality among all people and deserving the same rights and opportunities) because they thought that it could cause a violent or sudden change in the society.
