Yet he risked his life to end monarchical government and replace it with republican government?
Think before you type.
Hamilton believed in a strong central government and admired France’s and, particularly, Great Britain’s national governments, as well as their prime minister/parliament system (sans monarchy). He was a Federalist while Jefferson was a Republican.
I think he was a “royalist” in that he wanted “King” (President for Life) for America.

Hamilton, as the Treasury Sec under Washington, gave us our first independent national bank, the precursor to the Federal Reserve Bank. He and Jefferson, then Sec. of State, were at loggerheads from then on. Aaron Burr once talked Monroe and Hamilton out of dueling, only to engage in the same act seven years later...While Burr’s reputation was on the decline at the time of his famous duel, the best man won. Hamilton was a Federalist synonymous with today’s statist democRATs. In retrospect, it’s a shame that Monroe didn’t take him out at the earlier occasion.
And then he the slipped into the Constitution its very own poison pill.
