Traditionally, an absolute monarch would only admit to having responsibilities to God, not to the people, and only the absolute monarch gets to say what his (or rarely, her) responsibilities are. Louis the fourteenth famously said "L'état c'est moi" meaning I am the state. The people in such a country exist to serve the monarch, the monarch does not exist to serve the people.
