Umm, while group loyalty is a strong bond of friendship as we see in 
the school history, I am not sure why the marauders made the group 
among themselves. It could easily have been another group.

However, I am most concerned about the marauders not knowing each 
other completely. I mean, why would Lupin feel that Sirius was the 
traitor even though Sirius became an illegal animagus to help Lupin 
face his curse easily? The other way also holds true.

I think that the marauders were held together only by James, to whom 
Sirius and Lupin had true loyalty. I may be wrong, though
