		In an absolute monarchy, the Monarch has power over every aspect of the state, and a constitution may be granted or withdrawn, while a constitutional monarch is subject to it as well as any citizen (though it may grant him such priviliges as inviolability).
		The most famous example of this was general Napoleon Bonaparte who created himself Emperor of France (formerly a kingdom) after legally assuming political control of the French Republic as First Consul for life; a blatant imitation of his empire was that of Bokassa I in the very poor Central African Empire.
		Also, Yuan Shikai crowned himself emperor of the short-lived "Empire of China", after Republic of China was founded the few years ago.
