Solomon I the Great (Georgian: სოლომონ I დიდი) (1735 – April 23, 1784), of the Bagrationi Dynasty, was King of Imereti (western Georgia) from 1752 to 1765 and again from 1767 until his death in 1784.
Solomon I's accession to the throne of Imereti was preceded by almost a century of unrest in the kingdom of Imereti. The Ottoman garrisons stationed in the Imereti castles, the Ottoman tribute, the rivalry between the king and the princes-nobles, the slave-trading, the intrigues of those seeking the throne, the weakened church plunged the country into anarchy.[1]
