I turn to the origin of Pandaemonium - Milton's Paradise Lost - for an answer. The society established by Lucifer is originally designed to be a mirror of Heaven - a city within hell as a paradise for all the demons. However, in order to govern Pandaemonium, he suggests a fundamentally democratic structure between the demons - however, under the intellectual guardianship of Lucifer. Lucifer dominates Pandaemonium anyway.

So I'd say it's most likely a supposedly free society run by a sort of old guard who are more than meets the eyes.

Please remember the events of Paradise Lost fundamentally reflect the English Civil War and the Protectorate.
