Israel did not have a king at that time (unless you count Jesus, whose crime displayed on His cross when He was executed was "Rex Iudaeorum", Latin for King of the Jews). The area had been taken over by the Roman Empire. It was governed by Pontius Pilate, who served as prefect of the Roman region of Judea from A.D. 26 until 36.

Why did many people proclaim Jesus as king of Israel?

The people were looking for the messiah who was prophesied to come in the Jewish (Old Testament) writings. When people saw the many miracles that Jesus did and heard His teaching they believed Jesus was the messiah. They thought He was going to deliver Israel from Roman rule and be king of Israel. So when Jesus was crucified their hopes were lost. Jesus' disciples also did not fully understand what had happened until Jesus appeared to them after His resurrection and taught them more about why He had to die.
