Conquest Edoma is a serious medieval fantasy roleplay server where the story comes first and the survival stuff comes second. It is built around player choices and long term world changes.
The world runs in seasons and there are no map wipes so your character your builds and your political moves can stick around. People make kingdoms and factions and alliances can flip fast. There is trade and businesses and an active economy plus secrets ruins and special artifacts tied to the throne.
The setting is a fractured continent with no crowned ruler so power gaps are forming and war can happen. You can join or build a kingdom run a trade network or play as a mercenary noble scholar or mage. The server uses a curated medieval fantasy modpack with things like Conquest Reforged Epic Fight and magic mods plus CustomNPCs and extra weapons and armor for deeper progression and big worldbuilding.
One Year Old Anarchy No Resets
I found a survival anarchy server that has been running for about a year and it keeps the same world with no resets.
It is on version 1.21.11 and it uses custom written plugins so gameplay can feel different and more unique.
The server is based in Finland so it should be really nice for European players who want low latency.
They also say they have reasonable hardware with NVMe SSDs 64GB ECC RAM and a 1 Gbit network so it should be able to handle fights and big builds better.
