History:
Pandæmonium is the capital of Hell in the epic poem Paradise Lost by the 17th century English poet John Milton.
"Pandæmonium" (American English "Pandemonium") is stemmed from Greek ("παν" meaning "all" or "every" + δαιμόνιον meaning "little spirit" or "little angel" or as Christians interpreted it, "little daemon," and later, "demon." The word roughly translates to All Demons), it is the name invented by John Milton for the capital of Hell, "the High Capital, of Satan and his Peers", built by the fallen angels at the suggestion of Mammon at the end of Book I, Paradise Lost (1667).
A comparison in meaning can be made with "pantheon" which refers to all of the gods. Book II begins with the debate among the demons in the council-chamber of Pandemonium. The demons built it in about an hour, but it far surpassed all human palaces or dwellings; it may have been small, though, since the demons are described as shrinking from their titanic size in order to fit in.
PandemoniuM! vs PdM™:
We often use the long PandemoniuM! tag during competitions. But in short, we are tagged as |PdM™|, which we often use during friendly matches or trainings.
Later on, PdM™ was also identified as:
Persistence . Determination . Massacre-athirst.
