An absolute monarchy is one in which the king or queen has total power.

Here's the definition for constitutional monarchy from Wikipedia's article:

"A constitutional monarchy is a form of government in which a monarch acts as head of state within the parameters of a written or unwritten constitution. It differs from absolute monarchy in that an absolute monarch serves as the sole source of political power in the state and is not legally bound by any constitution.

"Most constitutional monarchies employ a parliamentary system in which the monarch is the ceremonial head of state and a directly- or indirectly-elected prime minister is the head of government and exercises effective political power."
