Nothing outlawed it. It only says that the US Congress can't grant titles of Nobility. "No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince or foreign State." They can grant land and stuff, but they can't grant you that. There is the Magical "Kingdom", KY Kingdom, and all kinds of stuff here. There is a Statue of King Louis the 16th in Louisville. NATO has a symbol of King Philip on it and a State's star next to it representing the Monarchy of a State. Ever heard, "The King's Word is Law," that is because Royalty has the laws crammed down their throats since the day they're born. It is a misconception. The Louisiana Purchase was named after King Louis the 16th, and Napoleon lost you know? He was drugged to death on an island. It doesn't say of a foreign state it says or a foreign state. Whatever.

(Someone else's answer) Because the Founding Fathers wanted this to be a nation "of the people, by the people and for the people" devoid of the trapping of Monarchy.
