The Democratic-Republican Party was an early US political party, which advocated states’ rights and limiting the strength of the federal government.

Explanation:

The Democratic-Republican Party was a political party in the United States which was the country's dominant party from the late 18th century to the 1820s.  

The party was founded in 1792 by Thomas Jefferson and James Madison as an opposition party to the Federalist Party of Alexander Hamilton and John Adams. The party fought primarily against the Federalists in the field of foreign policy. For example, the party opposed the Jay Treaty and the pro-British policy of the Federalists. Another point of contention between the two parties was the rights in which the individual states of the union could retain for themselves instead of ceding to the central government. The Democratic Republicans were in favor of more rights for the states.

“the iliad” (gr: “iliás”) is an epic poem by the ancient greek poet homer, which recounts some of the significant events of the final weeks of the trojan war and the greek siege of the city of troy (which was also known as ilion, ilios or ilium in ancient times).
