information should be changed in the statement below? Justify (explain how you know) your
answer in two or three complete sentences.

When it was time for the Constitution to be ratified, two groups arose. The Federalists
supported the new government created by the Constitution, while the Anti-Federalists
opposed the Constitution. The Anti-Federalists were afraid the new national government
created by the Constitution would be too weak.

The statement is accurate and does not require any changes. It accurately represents the beliefs of the Federalists and Anti-Federalists during the ratification of the Constitution. The Federalists did support the new government created by the Constitution, believing it would provide a strong central authority. On the other hand, the Anti-Federalists opposed the Constitution because they feared it would create a too powerful national government that could potentially infringe on individual rights and liberties.
