Federalists' beliefs could be better described as nationalist. The Federalists were instrumental in 1787 in shaping the new US Constitution, which strengthened the national government at the expense of the states and people.

Anti-Federalism refers to a movement that opposed the creation of a stronger U.S. federal government and which later opposed the ratification of the 1787 Constitution. The previous constitution, called the Articles of Confederation, gave state governments more authority.

Federalists believed in a strong central government. They  argued in favor of separation of powers: the division of the government into three separate branches whose powers balance each other. They felt this would be necessary and helpful. On the other hand, Anti-Federalists were fearful that the separation of powers would not equally balance power. They did not believe that this separation could occur in a fair way.

That's the sample answer for e2020.
