Not all monarchs are queens, but all queens who are heads of state are monarchs. Kings are also monarchs.
A constitutional Monarchy refers to a country governed by a parliament that has a Monarch. The only time the monarch has any power at all is when the government absolutely does not function. At all other times, the monarch is simply there for ritualistic purposes and appearance sake. Japan, England, Thailand, The Netherlands, and a few others have constitutional monarchs.

The decline of absolute monarchs can be attributed to the rise of democratic ideals and the push for human rights, which have led to greater demands for political participation and accountability. Globalization and the spread of information have also empowered citizens to challenge authoritarian rule. Additionally, many absolute monarchies faced internal and external pressures, such as economic challenges and social movements, prompting them to adopt more constitutional frameworks to maintain stability. As a result, few absolute monarchs remain, with many having transitioned to constitutional or parliamentary systems.
Constitutional monarchy is a form of democratic government where in monarchs play the role of a non-party political head of state within a constitution. Australia, Japan, Canada, Cambodia and Spain are countries with constitutional monarchy.
