The Garden SMP is a Java 1.21.11 survival multiplayer server that is built for worldbuilding adventure and roleplay. It uses plugins to add extra flavor while still feeling like survival.
You start with 3 lives and you only lose them through PvP. If you run out you become a ghost and the story keeps going. Players can also bring someone back using a craftable revival book.
Some vanilla stuff is turned off to help roleplay like no Elytra and no Ender chests. This makes travel and building roads and towns matter more and it pushes players to interact.
There are lots of extras like locking chests with keys and making lockpicks to break in. You can set up chest shops brew alcohols and beers and even tame any mob as a pet.
When you join you wake up above the clouds then you stick the landing and go down the Monolith to begin. You can pick a race for your character like elf halfling merfolk giant or human then you wake on the docks of Isla De Viva Eterna. From there you can sail to the mainlands and claim land or live in a town with others.
The vibe is relaxed with optional challenges and it is not pay to win. Staff and mods are active and the community is small but thriving.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPBrutal Geopolitics Survival Where Nations Clash

I found a survival server that goes hard on world building and geopolitics. Players make nations and the whole world is about diplomacy war economy and just staying alive.
It runs on 1.21.11 and it lets people join on different versions with ViaBackward. The world starts at 5000 by 5000 and it can expand when more players show up.
Travel is a big deal because there are no elytras. There are also no villagers so you cannot just trade forever. Crafting is tougher with custom recipes and netherite is 1 to 1 so it is not free.
Claims and borders are handled with a lands system so nations can hold territory. Roads and rails matter too since you move faster on proper roads and minecarts go way faster on powered rails.
There is a grindstone rework that lets you pull enchantments off and turn them into books. Farming and fishing are reworked so food and loot take more planning. You can also silk touch spawners and move them which changes defense and farming a lot.
The rarest thing is the mace since only ten exist on the whole server and each player can only craft one. Enchantments on it are restricted so it stays balanced and feels like a real legendary item.

This server is all about teams and big wars. Players fight for territory and power using guns planes tanks and other modern gear.
Most of the action is made by the players. Wars start over resources and conflict instead of being forced events. So battles feel natural and actually matter.
The world is meant to last a long time. Exploring building bases and making real infrastructure is important here and does not just get wiped all the time.
The server is not pay to win. If you want a modern warfare style server that keeps its world and lets players shape the map this one fits that really well.
