The First Great Awakening primarily took place in the American colonies during the 1730s and 1740s. It was characterized by a series of religious revivals that spread through New England and other regions, emphasizing personal piety and emotional connections to faith. Key figures, such as George Whitefield and Jonathan Edwards, played significant roles in these revivals, which challenged established religious practices and encouraged a more individualistic approach to spirituality.
