Joseph I was the King of Portugal from 1750 until his death in 1777. During his reign, Portugal was involved in the Seven Years' War (1756-1763), a conflict that saw Portugal aligning with Britain against France and Spain. Additionally, Joseph I faced the Távora affair in 1759, a conspiracy against his rule that resulted in the execution of several nobles. Despite these challenges, Joseph I is remembered for his efforts to modernize Portugal, including the reconstruction of Lisbon after the devastating earthquake of 1755.
