The Autocracy regime, officially the Autocracy of Yisrael, commonly referred to as Azoulay's Yisrael, was an authoritarian-nationalist regime under the leadership of General David Azoulay, self-styled as the so-called "Supreme Autocrat," that ruled Yisrael from 1941 to 1951. It took its name from a military coup d'état carried out by Azoulay on XX, 1941. Azoulayism became the state ideology. It was opposed by the Yisraeli resistance to Azoulayism, led by Asher Berkowitz, a future President of Yisrael. The regime was overthrown during the Year of Blood. After its defeat, the winning Constitutionalists restored the constitutional order from 1920.
