What was the XYZ affair? I’ve gotta know!! Objective: To examine the XYZ Affair and the causes and effects of the Alien and Sedition Acts. What was the XYZ affair? I’ve gotta know!!

The XYZ Affair The U.S. sent three people to France to work on a peace settlement. The three French officials, who became known as X, Y, and Z, demanded a bribe and a loan for France. Angered and insulted, the Americans refused. "Millions for defense, but not one cent for tribute."

What are the definitions of the following key terms? alien sedition deport a foreigner stirring up a rebellion against a government to expel, or kick out Alien and Sedition Acts (1798) – Federalist laws intended to stop Democratic-Republicans from gaining power.

Democratic-Republicans. Alien Act (1798) allowed the President to deport any alien considered dangerous to the country. The number of years an alien had to wait to become a U.S. citizen increased from 5 to 14 years. These laws helped stop immigrants from voting for the Democratic-Republicans.

Yo, that’s wack! (and illegal, too!) at Democratic-Republican Sedition Act (1798) Yo, that’s wack! (and illegal, too!) Anyone found guilty of sedition could be fined and sent to prison. The law was aimed at Democratic-Republican newspapers.

Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions Thomas Jefferson claimed that the Alien and Sedition Acts were unconstitutional. KY and VA claimed that states had the right to nullify any federal law they believed to be unconstitutional. (state’s rights) Nullify - to cancel The Federalists believed that only the Supreme Court could declare a law unconstitutional. Video: Acts and Proclamations
