Federalists were afraid that westward expansion would hurt their party and started talking about secession. The vice president, Aaron Burr, supported this idea which would eventually lead Hamilton to accuse him. This would cause an illegal pistol fight between the two, resulting in Hamilton’s death (purchases strongly increased parties
