As that nation grew, it became necessary in 1890 to split it in five parts: Lunds Nation, Malmö Nation, Helsingkrona Nation, Sydskånska Nation and Kristianstads Nation. Nowadays, however, a student's origin plays only a small part when choosing what nation to belong to. The 17th century pro-Danish Scanian partisan Snapphane is the symbol of the nation, and the Nation arms, annual festivities and other activities all bear the name Snapphane. Kristianstad was historically located in the Göinge area where the Snapphane resided.
