I found a small geopolitics style server that is semi vanilla on Java. It is run by the owner and it uses a bunch of in house made plugins to make everything feel like medieval times.
The world is a huge custom map and it is made to be super detailed and realistic like a real planets geography. The server is being redone right now and the goal is to end up with a more active community.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPMineRealm Classic SMP No Resets
MineRealm is a public SMP server that has been online since 2010 and a lot of players have joined over the years. It feels like a long term survival world with people who actually stick around.
The server keeps things legit with no pay to win and no item spawning. It stays close to vanilla but it also has a few custom plugin features meant to help the community and make survival last.
The map is smaller and it expands over time. New land generates in the latest Minecraft version so you still get updated terrain as the world grows.
Builds are meant to be safe here since the server uses a classic plot system and grief protection with CoreProtect. There are no world resets so what you build can stay for the long run and players have made the world without prefab hubs.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFinland Survival Hub With A Permanent Map
I found a Minecraft server called MinecraftOffline and it runs on version 1.21.11.
It is based in Finland so it should feel smooth for players in Europe. The world is permanent so the map is meant to stick around.
The server also uses a custom plugin suite so it is not just plain default stuff. The hardware looks reasonable too with an i7-8700 64GB RAM two 6TB enterprise drives and a 1 Gbit network.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPVanilla Demon Hard Survival Longterm

I found a brand new server with a custom plugin where you build your own company and try to grow it.
You extract resources from land then you specialize in making stuff and selling it to other players. The economy is meant to be balanced and the money is gold ingots.

Project Indigo is a community server where the players help design what happens. There is a custom Discord bot that lets people pitch new mechanics and ideas for events.
The community votes on the best concept. Then the coder builds that exact plugin during the week. On Saturday the server runs the event you all voted for and if you survive you can win real prizes like Nitro or gift cards.
There is also a 24 7 SMP for the rest of the week so people can chill and hang out between the intense event days.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPMonths Of Work Prison Remake

This is an anarchy style Minecraft server that is hosted in Europe. The world is eternal and they say it never resets so every base and every crater stays. It feels like a place for players who want long term chaos and real history in the map.
The server runs on version 1.21.11 and uses custom plugins to enhance gameplay. It still feels close to normal Minecraft but with extra features behind the scenes. There are no clear rules mentioned so it really looks like do what you want anarchy.
The hardware sounds pretty serious with a strong Intel Xeon processor fast NVMe SSDs and a lot of DDR4 ECC RAM. The hosting is in Finland so ping should be good for most European players.
