The Royal Crisis (Nørdspråg: Kongelig Krise) was a major Political Crisis in Lyngaard that lasted from 1961 until 1967. The cuase of the crisis was the revelation of Prince Hans Erik's involvement with the Far-Right Kultur og Tradition group. The group had been implicated in several Anti-Immigrant, Anti-Communist, and Anti-Union attacks since the mid 1940's. The media scrutiny placed on Prince Hans Erik also helped to uncover illegal banking praticies he was involved in as a board member of Kongelig Investeringsbank. This would come to a head when bank official and co-conspirator Rasmus Mortensen was found dead, hung at the Sort Munk Bridge in 1966. Several members of both Kultur og Tradition and the Royal Investment Bank were implicated in the killing. Victories for the Socialist Labor Party of Lyngaard in 1963 and again in 1967 would eventually force Hans Erik to abdicate his claim, making the way for his uncle King Gustav Fredrik II to be elected king by the Regency Council in 1967.
