Ultimate Hardcore is a permanent death Hardcore SMP where dying is the end. There are no map resets and no revives so every fight and mistake really matters.
The world is massive at 300000 by 300000 blocks. PvP is on everywhere and raiding and griefing are allowed so you are never fully safe.
It stays close to vanilla but still has some plugins that fit the hardcore vibe. You can get player heads and you can loot fallen players Ender Chests. It also has Simple Voice Chat and detailed stat tracking plus other small quality of life stuff.
Over time big players and alliances build power and claim land then eventually die and leave it all behind. Nothing is scripted and all the wars friendships and betrayals happen naturally from the players.
If you want one of the hardest Minecraft experiences this is the kind of server where you bring friends and try to survive because death is permanent.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPInvite Only Hardcore Civilization SMP

I found this brand new hardcore SMP that is invite only and it is built around groups and civilization growth.
The big thing is you do not just join like normal. Only people who are already inside can invite new players. It is meant to feel like population growth and it helps keep trolls out.
There are secret tweaks and mechanics too. They do not hand you guides so you have to figure stuff out yourself and pay attention.
It also has a clan and family setup so you do not spawn alone in a hardcore world. You join because someone invited you so you start as part of a group and you get pulled into the story with everyone else.
