Does absolute monarchy have a military? Why or why not?

Absolute monarchy is a monarchical form of government in which the monarch had absolute power among his or her people. An absolute monarch wields unrestricted political power over the sovereign state and its people. Absolute monarchies are often hereditary but other means of transmission of power are attested. Absolute monarchy differs from constitutional monarchy, in which a monarch's authority in a constitutional monarchy is legally bonded or restricted by a constitution. The absolute monarch exercises total power over the land, yet in practice the monarchy is counterbalanced by political groups from among the social class and castes of the realm, such as the aristocracy, clergy and middle and lower classes.
