AtlasCivs is a Minecraft server about geopolitical roleplay and nations. The world does not reset so everything people build and every story they make actually sticks around.
There is a 6k by 6k claimable area so you can protect personal bases and large national builds. The nether is set to a 1 to 1 ratio so people are pushed to use rails paths canals and normal routes instead of zooming everywhere.
Players create nations and those nations deal with diplomacy war and trade. Making a nation is pretty easy and you do not even have to do it if you just want to live somewhere and build.
The community likes creative projects a lot. People are into writing drawing music and videos and that kind of stuff is encouraged and welcomed.
The server uses Coreprotect that players can access. It has proximity voice chat multiplayer sleep playerheads on death and elytras are disabled. It is a Java server and you need to get whitelisted with your in game name and age.

Troothe SMP Season 5 Mature Survival

TrootheSMP is a friendly survival SMP that supports cross play. It runs in seasons and Season 5 is happening right now. The seasons are made to last long enough so people can actually build stuff make progress and set up shops without getting wiped all the time.
It is not an 18 plus server but everyone is expected to act mature and respectful. The server keeps the survival feel but adds a small set of upgrades that help with building and daily play.
There is Discord integration with account linking plus updates and community tools. The economy is item based and players make physical shops. There are land claims so you can build without worrying about grief. There are also quality of life features like armored Elytra and villager leashes. Simple Voice Chat is supported too.
They also started a Hytale server in the same community and it is still very early.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPRelaxed Semi Vanilla SMP With Long Term World

Waystone is a small semi vanilla Java SMP that feels like the kind of place where people actually talk and keep building for the long run. It is aimed at a Hermitcraft style vibe with a relaxed pace and a community that wants to stick around.
The world is meant for long term builds and towns. You can build solo or with friends and there is land claiming to help keep your stuff safe.
Deaths are less stressful since your items get saved in a gravestone for a few hours. There are also skills that level up while you play and you unlock small perks over time.
When people go adventuring together everyone gets their own loot so nobody has to argue about it. Proximity voice chat is optional and there is also a live map you can watch as builds grow.
The server is whitelist only on Java 1.21.11 and it is UK hosted. They also say no pay to win and no constant resets and they run events fairly often.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP3 Lives Roleplay Survival on The Garden

The Garden SMP is a Java 1.21.11 survival multiplayer server that leans hard into worldbuilding adventure and roleplay. It is meant to feel relaxed but still give you optional challenges if you want them.
You start with 3 lives and the only way to lose them is through PvP. If you lose all 3 you become a ghost and you are the only one who knows what is beyond the veil. Players can still bring someone back using a craftable revival book.
Some vanilla stuff is turned off to fit roleplay better like Elytra and Ender chests so people build more infrastructure and interact more. There are also lots of plugins for flavor like chest locking with trial keys plus lockpicks to break in chest shops alcohol and beer brewing and a bunch of QoL changes.
When you join you wake up on the clouds and you stick the landing then head down the Monolith to begin. You can pick a race for your character like elf halfling merfolk giant or human then wake on the docks of Isla De Viva Eterna. From there you can sail to the mainlands to claim land or live in a town with others.
It also says there is no pay to win and the staff and mods are active and attentive with a small thriving community.

The Land Of Tranopica is a heavily modded Minecraft server that you have to apply for. It is mainly about roleplay and making stories with other players.
It also tries to be fun for people who do not want to roleplay all the time. The server uses Origins and a cosmetics mod so you can show what you picked while you play.
It is built off the Vintage Wilds modpack. The whole vibe feels like a place where players can jump in and see what kind of stories happen.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAnarchy.ae Semi-Anarchy SMP No Wipes

I found Anarchy.ae and it is a long term semi anarchy survival world. It is meant for people who want freedom but still want the server to stay playable.
The world is persistent and it does not do wipes or seasons. Stuff you build can stay for a long time and ruins and roads and old bases become part of the history.
Pvp is on and raiding is allowed so bases can get found and fights can happen. People can team up then split up later and the map shows what players did over time.
It stays close to vanilla and it has light quality of life stuff without turning it into shortcuts. It also has some moderation to keep it fair and stable and it blocks unfair exploits.
You can join on Java or Bedrock because it has crossplay. It runs on dedicated hardware in Germany and it is focused on long term stability and regular backups.
