Joseph I (25 April 1224 - 19 August 1291), byname the Great or the Strong, was King of Lavitta until his coronation by Pope Leo VI on 5 July 1261, becoming the first king of Salvia.

Joseph was crowned at the age of 26 following the death of his father, Leo II in 1250. During his years as King of Lavitta (1250-1261), Joseph waged constant warfare on his peninsular rivals, most notably the Republic of Demetae. He also faced internal conflict with powerful nobles and a papal succession crisis, both of which he solved.

Joseph annexed many notable provinces during his reign, incorporating most of modern-day Tanemum, the Sicani Islands, the western half of the Salvian peninsula, Alvernia, and small areas of Kiteton.

The golden age that Joseph I ushered in, the High Medieval Renaissance, was a great cultural, economic, and intellectual transformation that would lay the groundwork for the Magnaere Progresiant. It was largely based in the increased contact with Marenesian and southern Europan nations due to prosperous trade, which allowed for the introduction of foreign ideas that later monarchs and eventually the philosophers of the Great Progression would take up and develop further. Southern Europan architectural techniques, considered more advanced then Salvian architecture, was adopted by Salvian architects and mathematicians who would develop it further into Gothic architecture. Universities were also constructed and supported by the state and Church in an effort to encourage the learning of the arts, sciences, history, and theology. Most universities were partly or fully controlled by the Church, which Joseph I and his heirs promoted, and as centers of the Great Progression would influence the Catholic worldview many of the humanists possessed.
Many churches, streets, buildings and more are built in Joseph's name, while numerous monuments are also dedicated to him.
