  Uroš I van Raška (Servisch: ???? I ?????????, Uroš I Vukanovic), was Servisch grootžupan van ongeveer 1118 tot 1140.
  
  Nadat zijn vader Vukan door Byzantium verslagen was, werd Uroš I, met de steun van Ðorde Vojisavljevic (de koning van Dioclitië), in 1118 župan van Raška. Hij verklaarde zich onafhankelijk van Byzantium, trachtte een verbond met Hongarije aan te gaan en verstevigde de invloed van Raška op Dioclitië en de Kustlanden. Met het overlijden van Ðorde Vojislavljevic (± 1131) voegde Uroš Dioclitië en de Kustlanden helemaal onder de heerschappij van Raška, hetgeen stand zou houden tot 1360. Hijzelf werd Servisch grootžupan. Uroš I had twee zonen en een dochter. Zijn oudste zoon Uroš II volgde hem op als Servisch grootžupan, de jongste zoon Beloš werd prins-regent van Hongarije, zijn dochter Jelena werd de gemalin van de Hongaarse koning Béla II en zijn dochter Maria, echtgenote van hertog Koenraad II van Moravië.

  Biography
  Origin
  
  Uroš I was the son of Marko[a], the brother of Grand Prince Vukan, who had sworn an oath of loyalty to Constantine Bodin, the Grand Prince of Duklja, becoming his vassals.[1] Marko, as the subordinate ruler, would have had his appanage in lands north of Rascia, bordering the Kingdom of Hungary.[2] The name Uroš itself, is most likely derived from the Hungarian word úr meaning "dominus" or "princeps", which is translated into the Slavic name 'Prvoslav', or 'Primislav', as seen in the case of Uroš II in Slavic sources.[3] It is a possibility that Marko married a Hungarian wife.[3]
  War with Byzantium
  
  In 1092, the Serb Army defeated the Byzantine Army led by the governor of Durazzo, sent by Alexius Comnenus. In 1093, Alexius himself led a larger Byzantine Army and marched towards Rascia, but Vukan heard of this and immediately sought peace, Alexius quickly accepted as new problems arose in the east where the Cumans penetrated as far as Adrianople. As soon as the Emperor had departed, Vukan broke the treaty, conquering the Vardar; taking the cities of Vranje, Skoplje and Tetovo. In 1094 or 1095, the Emperor once again marched to the Serbs, capturing Lipljan, this time Vukan met with him in his tent and gave him some twenty hostages, including Uroš I and Stefan Vukan, as an oath of peace.[4] Uroš was first mentioned in the contemporary Alexiad of Anna Komnene, a written account of the reign of her father Byzantine emperor Alexios I Komnenos.
  
  Following the death of Vukan in 1112, Uroš succeeds as Grand Prince.[5]
  Civil War in Duklja
  
  In 1113/4, the Byzantine Army based in Durazzo invades Duklja, capturing the capital of Scutari. Duklja at the time was ruled by Prince Ðorde of Duklja (r. 1118), the son of Constantine Bodin. The Byzantines install Grubeša Branislavljevic after 1118, banishing Ðorde to Rascia. Ðorde claims protection of Uroš, and in the 1125 the two led an army against Grubeša,[6] meeting in the Battle of Antivari. Grubeša is killed, and Ðorde retains his realm, although not all of it, small parts were ruled by cousins, among them the three brothers of Grubeša, who would soon quarrel with Ðorde. The Byzantines again invaded the coastlands of Duklja, giving the nominal rule to Gradinja, resulting in a guerilla war in the woods. The second expedition captured Ðorde, he was taken to Constantinople where he died. Gradinja strengthened the ties with Serbia.[7]
  Diplomacy
  
  In around 1130, he married his daughter, Jelena, to King Béla II of Hungary. Bela II, being blind, relied entirely on Jelena who acted as a co-ruler. Jelena is sourced as having decided to massacre 68 aristocrats at the Arad assembly, who had persuaded Coloman to blind her husband.
  
  In 1137, Ladislaus II, the son of Béla II and Jelena, becomes the titular Ban of Bosnia.
  
  When Bela II died on 13 February 1141, the eldest son Géza II ascended the throne, still a child. Therefore, Helena and her brother Beloš Vukanovic, whom she had invited to the court, governed the Kingdom of Hungary till September 1146 when he came of age.
  
  Beloš was the Ban of Croatia 1142-1158, under the Hungarian crown, and held the comes palatinus (Count palatine), the highest court title of the Kingdom.
