This server is called OneCraft and it feels like vanilla but upgraded. You join with a normal Minecraft client and do not need to install any modpacks because everything runs on the server side. It still feels like normal survival so you mine and build and explore like usual.
There is a big focus on finding special loot. They use something called Mine Treasure and it adds biome based treasures and different tiers of loot and a lot of new custom items you can discover while mining. It makes going underground and exploring caves feel way more exciting.
The world also feels really alive. There are extra mods that add tons of new structures and more detailed biomes but they still look like they belong in vanilla. So when you explore you keep running into cool places that feel natural in the game.
Your builds are protected because they use a simple land claim system. You can claim your area so people cannot grief your stuff. It makes it way easier to relax and work on big builds without worrying.
The community seems friendly and they have Discord chat connected to the server plus Simple Voice Chat support. The server runs on dedicated hardware in Canada East so it is made to be stable and not laggy.
The owner says it is a passion project and there is no pay to win. It is really about survival building and exploring together instead of just buying perks.

Nation States is a semi vanilla server that uses the towny claiming system. The whole idea is to build nations and not just random bases. Players are pushed to make politics trade and war with each other.
The server is all about roleplay and lore and cool conflicts between players. The owner wants people to actually act like they are in a nation and not just grind alone. If you ignore that spirit and just ruin the experience you will probably get removed.
The theme is early antiquity so it feels like playing in an ancient world. There is a custom map that is about 5k by 5k so it is not too huge but still has room for different nations.
From what I can see the community is meant to be competitive but still focused on fun and interaction. It is for people who like nation building and diplomacy and serious roleplay more than just pure pvp or pure survival.
