The National League was founded in 1876. The American League was founded in 1901. At first, the two leagues were enemies. The American League 'stole' a lot of players from the National League by offering them more money. After two years, the two leagues made a truce and became friends, so to speak. They decided to stay as two separate leagues instead of merging into one.
