Nations at Swedish universities
The student nations at the two ancient universities in Uppsala and Lund, of which there are now thirteen at each university, are the oldest student societies in Sweden. The Uppsala nations have a history stretching back to around 1630-1640, and were probably formed under the influence of the Landsmannschaften in existence at the northern German universities frequented by Swedish students.
