The Hezekian Reaction, officially known as the Royalist Counterrevolution, and by its critics as the so-called Reactionary monarchy, refers to the reign of King Hezekiah III of Yisrael. His father, Yaakov II, was known as the "Quiet Monarch" and rarely involved himself in political and constitutional duties, to the effect that the President of Yisrael stepped in to fulfill some of the roles as a de facto co-head of state. Upon taking the throne, Hezekiah instituted a startling and unprecedented reclamation - accused by his opposition as an unlawful expansion - of royal powers and perogatives, some of which had been unused for over a century since the end of the absolute monarchy in the 1919 Revolution. The new King also declared the limits on royal powers passed in the 1952 Royal Reform Acts to be unconstitutional and null and void, precipitating a constitutional crisis.
