The First Great Awakening of the 1730s and 1740s was primarily a A movement to increase colonial loyalty to the British monarchy
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

B revival of evangelical religion that spread through the colonies.

Explanation:

Over the years, new generations have lost the vision and religious fervor of the pioneers. The growing economic prosperity and intellectual advancement resulted in a progressive numbness of the spiritual life. In the midst of this state of affairs, many people began to pray for a revitalization of the churches and their members. It was common for preachers to mourn the decline of spirituality and to urge their faithful to pray for revival. These aspirations began to be met outside New England, in the central colonies. This generated a deep need to bring the faithful back to religious life, leading preachers and priests to preach fervently. Thus was born the First Great Awakening, a period of high religious activity, mainly in the United Kingdom and in the colonies of North America.

Mark each statement that correctly describes the political and religious conflicts between the Ottoman and Safavid empires.
Naddika [18.5K]
<span><span>The Safavid and Ottoman dynasties were both of Turkish ethnicity. The Safavid empire extended from the Caucasia ( Armenia, Azeribijan, etc.) to India, Iraq, the Persian Gulf, and parts of central Asia and the Caspian Sea.The Ottoman empire, on the other hand, ruled the the rest of the Islamic empire (Middle East, Balkans, and North Africa). 

The Ottoman empire was older and stronger than the young Safavid empire, but the Ottomans were alarmed as the Safavid strength and influence grew and felt their interest was threatened. Moreover, the Safavid followed Shia Islam, while the Ottoman people were followers of Sunni/Sufi Islam. 

But the main reasons for the conflict are rather political than for sectarian religious factors as many try to force this idea of Sunni/Shia conflict. 

As the Safavid empire grew, it pushed its territories as far as Iraq and eastern Turkey, carving for itself a considerable chunk of Ottoman territory. This was the point when the Ottomans felt in danger and waged war on their cousins the Safavid.</span><span>
