This server is a vanilla client survival experiment where the mechanics push people to work together. Trying to play solo is super hard. Crops and ores are locked to different regions so you cannot just get everything where you live.
If you settle in a tundra you will need to trade with desert groups to get stuff like cactus and sand. That makes players talk and build trade and deals instead of hiding underground.
The world is meant to be permanent and always changing with no resets. The admins set up scarcity and biome locked resources and factory based industry then they step back. There are no admin forced events so wars treaties and trade all happen naturally.
A huge part of the server is the Printing Press. Players mass produce books to record laws religions and conflicts and that history is starting to get archived on the community wiki.

The server has a gold based economy with chestshops so trading is a big deal. There is also a 3D live dynamic map plus regular updates and an active development team. They run building competitions and events and the community is small but active since the server has been open for just over a month in beta.

Golden Nations is a geopolitical Minecraft server where players make nations and try to survive politics and war. You can lead with diplomacy or just go full conflict and see who lasts.
It runs on version 1.21.11 and the world is 5000 by 5000 so people are forced to interact early. With no elytras travel and borders matter a lot.
The economy is player driven so the market is controlled by players. You can still sell food crops and ores but the rest is shaped by trading and what nations decide to do.
Wars are high stakes because if you die in an official war you get banned for 24 hours and your character is fully reset. Fishing is also changed with custom loot tables so it can give rare stuff that matters.
There are no villagers so there is no infinite trading and no easy shortcuts. It feels competitive and every alliance and betrayal can change the map.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPNation SMP Beta Nations And War
This is a beta test world for a big Nation SMP server. The people running it are trying out custom plugins before the real server opens. If you join the beta you get a reserved spot on the main server later.
On this server players can create their own nations and draw borders. You can make laws and send letters to other leaders. You can write custom agreements and make alliances or even declare wars. It is all about nations and diplomacy and big politics stuff.
There is a custom economy that seems really easy to use. You can make your own money system with your own standard. You can mix items like netherite and diamonds and iron and give your currency a custom name. You can also try to get other nations to adopt your money.
Right now they are still testing the custom claims plugin and the custom nation and diplomacy plugin. The server already has a bunch of people interested so it feels like it will get pretty active when the main server opens.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPRuneCraft Nations And Invasions Server

Lodestone is a Minecraft geopolitics and worldbuilding server that is going into a closed beta. It tries to give a fresh twist on the usual town and war style.
The main thing I noticed is the spice trade system. You harvest different spices and sell them at spawn and the land you control changes how good your spices are. This makes people want to fight over the best land so the economy and wars actually feel connected.
The server also uses Towny so players can make towns and nations and go to war with each other. There are chest shops so anyone can set up a shop with a chest and a sign and trade items with other players.
There is also Auraskills so you can level up a bunch of skills and unlock different abilities as you play. It fits the worldbuilding and war style because you keep growing your character over time.
To join right now you have to get into the closed beta by applying through their discord and then you can get the server IP from the how to play channel.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
