When the Republican Party was founded, it opposed slavery.

In 1854, the Whig Party of the United States ended up disintegrating and disappeared; this had been, since 1834, the second largest party in the country (the first was the Democratic Party of the United States). On March 20 of the same year, the Republican Party was founded at a meeting held in a small school in the city of Ripon, Wisconsin.

Obviously the majority of the founding members of the Republican Party had been members of the Whig Party of the United States, but some were former members of the Democratic Party, and another part of the founders were independent or had been part of other groups.

What all these groups had in common to form the new party was their ideological belonging to the powerful abolitionist movement, which brought together all white-skinned people in the Northern States of the United States who were fighting to abolish slavery of black people in the southern states of America.
