The Lesser Key of Solomon or the Lemegeton plays a vital role in the history, study of, summoning of, and exorcising of demonic entities.

The Five Parts of the Lesser Key of Solomon / Lemegeton

The first part of the Lesser Key of Solomon / Lemegeton is called Godetia; this section grants the conjurations for 72 different spirits or demons. This section also includes the demon ranks and the titles held by the Demonic hierarchy.
The second part of the Lesser Key of Solomon / Lemegeton is called The Urgia Godetia, which deals with the spirits at the cardinal points.
The third part of the Lesser Key of Solomon / Lemegeton is called the Pauline Art; it concerns the spirits of the hours of the days and nights of the Zodiac.
The fourth part of the Lesser Key of Solomon / Lemegeton is called The Almaden; it deals with the Quarternary of the Attitude, comprising of the four other choirs of the demon spirits inhabiting hell.
The fifth part of the Lesser Key of Solomon / Lemegeton and the last part of the Key of Solomon is the Book of Orations and Prayers, said to have been used by King Solomon himself.

Rita Cabezas is a controversial Latin American Demonologist who received much criticism for her studies in demonology. Cabezas claims to have attained her knowledge of demons directly from the demons themselves through conjuration, summonings, channeling, or even seance-type activities.

Rita Cabezas discovered the following six demon principalities (in Spanish):

1. Damian
2. Asmodeo
3. Menguelesh
4. Arios
5. Beelzebub
6. Nosferateus

Under each of the above demons are six governors for each nation.

Rita Cabezas claimed these demons rule the following nations:

Costa Rica: Shiebo, Quiebo, Ameneo, Mephistopheles, Nostrodamus, and Azazel reign.
United States: Ralphes, Anoritho, Manchester, Apolion, Deviltook, Alas, and one that remains unnamed reign.

Similiarities in Demonologist Cabezas' findings:

Apollo: Apollyon
Asmodeo: Asmodeus
Ralphes: Raphael

Hectate
Kali
Pan
Loki
Lilith
Baphomet

SATAN, FALLEN ANGELS, AND DEMONS

Satan - (Sometimes interchangeable with Lucifer and the Devil) - one individual not omniscient, omnipresent, or omnipotent like God.

Heb. 12:22 - too innumerable (myriads, countless, indefinitely large numbers, enormous, multitudinous) hosts of angels.
Rev. 5:11 - calculates at least 101,000,000 total angels.
Rev. 12:4 - calculates at least 33,700,000 fallen angels.
There are many millions of fallen angels.

Demons may have come before the time of Adam and Eve, but no scriptural reference can be found to prove where demons came from conclusively. Demons claim that they are demons and are not to be confused with fallen angels. Although the demons are commanded to tell their names in the ritual of demon exorcism, they must not to say where they originate.

You may also read further into the Bible scriptures, starting with Matt. 25:41, II Peter 2:4, and Jude 6. There is no definitive clarification on whether angels are demons, but we do see a clear line between the two entities.

Satan sits at the top of the demonic hierarchy as Chief in Staff of Hell with his fallen angels acting as his officers and generals. The demons are his soldiers in Hell and on Earth.

Druids revered the fairies, gnomes, and undines, which are also types of demons.
