History

After the previous government failed due to the Prussian constitutional conflict with the liberal chamber majority over the state parliament's participation in military affairs and, in principle, the parliamentarization of Prussia, William I installed a more conservative government that tried to agree on a compromise solution with the parliamentary majority, which, however, did not succeed. One week after Hohenlohe-Ingelfingen took office, the cabinet was fundamentally reorganized. The leading head of the cabinet was not the Prime Minister, but Finance Minister August von der Heydt.
