The Know - Nothings (American Party) emerged due to anti - Catholic sentiment and mistrust of immigrants in the 19th - century US. The Republican Party was formed over the issue of slavery's expansion. The Democratic Party split over slavery, and the Free - Soilers focused on opposing slavery in new territories. So the result of anti - Catholic feeling and immigrant mistrust was the creation of the Know - Nothings.
