Reventium

This is a Minecraft server called CinderCivs and it is a vanilla plus geopolitical roleplay world. The server has been running for over two years without a world reset so everything players build and change can last for a really long time.

Players create nations that fight wars make alliances trade and do diplomacy. Each nation is different and has its own government and power struggles. Some of these nations have been around since the beginning so new players will see old builds and history everywhere.

The world has a big claimable area that is ten thousand by fourteen thousand blocks. There is also an expansion area that gets reset every big update so people can explore new chunks and mine fresh resources. The nether is one to one size and there are faster railways and paths so traveling is easier.

There are custom recipes that help builders and a plugin that is made just for roleplaying. Almost everything on the server is driven by players instead of admins. The community is active and likes creative projects like writing lore drawing characters making maps and flags and building big things together.

If you want a long lasting world a lot of roleplay and nations that actually matter then this server is built for that style of play.
