Halcyon is a Lands PvP server made to feel like a medieval world. It was founded by a postgraduate medievalist and it aims for an immersive vibe with old school survival rules while still running the latest vanilla version 1.21.11.
The server uses a handmade custom world and it adds limits to make the game harder and slower. You are not meant to win by exploits or heavy automation. People get ahead by fighting well making deals building cities and fortresses and getting other players to team up.
Travel matters a lot since there is no teleportation. Players end up making roads waystations and even secret underground railways. Some crops and saplings only work in certain biomes so trading becomes important and different areas start to feel unique.
It does not force you into strict lore. You can play how you want and let stories happen naturally as more players show up. Night cannot be skipped and health only comes back slowly and under certain conditions. The server is based in Australia with players from Europe the Americas and Asia and it usually has about 10 to 30 players online.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPGods And Gold Political Fantasy SMP
Gods and Gold is a modded Minecraft server that is all about politics culture consequence and fantasy but it still keeps the chaotic fun of Minecraft.
From what I saw the world is meant to last a long time so players can build deep lore with each other. Player actions matter and can influence the server. It is not focused on grinding all day and it does not try to be edgy like a lot of other politics servers.
You can create your own history and nation or you can join one of two staff made factions. These factions already have their own culture and NPCs so you can jump in fast if you do not feel like writing a big backstory. You can still climb the political ladder inside them.
Claims are tied to political titles and you can get those through economy military politics or civic paths. There are rules for succession abdication elections and even usurping. You can play noble ruthless or just efficient as long as you stay mature and remember it is just a game.
The economy is player run and the currency is renewable. There are a lot of money sinks like land upkeep tithes war costs buffs and cosmetics so the economy can boom or crash but it is still meant to stay fun.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
