In addition to this official division, private country associations developed that shaped the social life of the students.

Excessive comments aroused the displeasure of some friars and other students. Under the leadership of a student from the Mark Brandenburg region , they founded the Märkisches Kränzchen , also known as the Märkische Gesellschaft , in 1786 as a counter-movement to the order . About a year later they divided it into four country teams or wreaths . After the main provinces of origin of their members, they called themselves Märker, Schlesier, Prussia (East and West Prussia) and Pomerania. They were each led and represented by senior citizens .
