The emergence of political parties in America The emergence of political parties in America started when the Americans decided to break their political bond with their motherland. As a result, this led to the emergence of the American Revolution where the political leaders decided to rule at a national scale. These resulted in conflicts among the aspiring politicians hence the emergence of political parties. The political parties conflicted in their different decisions.
