And do you recall what they called those years?

The era of good feelings.

The Era of Good Feelings was a period of intense national unity and patriotism in the United States, lasting roughly from 1815 to 1825, coinciding with President James Monroe's administration. The term describes a time of declining political opposition as the Federalist Party collapsed after the War of 1812, alongside economic growth, westward expansion, and flourishing American culture. However, this era also saw the emergence of sectional tensions, particularly over slavery and tariffs, leading to economic recession and the breakdown of the singular political party system by the end of the period.

The political factions that existed at the time were democratic but the name never stuck until the jackasses came along.
