I found a modded survival server called BeagleSMP and it is built around fantasy lore with nations and conflict. The land is full of dragons and other beasts so you can go exploring and get into trouble fast.
It uses the Ice and Fire mod so you can find dragons fight them and even tame your own. There are also custom structures and dungeons and more monsters to discover while you travel.
Players are pushed to make nations and settlements together. You can be a monarch a warrior or just run a tavern and do your own thing. The world border is kept kind of small so people stay close but it expands over time.
PVP is allowed but they do not want random killing. It is mostly meant for planned wars and big story moments and going too hard can get you punished. The server is whitelisted so you have to apply first.

The map is 3k by 3k and the server stays running all the time. It is Java 1.20.1 and it is modded with organic RP nations and voice chat.
The Forgotten Era is a brand new whitelisted roleplay server made for players who want immersion and a real community. It takes inspiration from an older server called Birthright and leans hard into alliances conquest and progression.

DaemoniaCraft is a survival server that mixes Solo Leveling vibes with medieval kingdoms on a huge Earth map. Players start as E Rank hunters and try to climb all the way up to S Rank. You unlock custom skills and chase better gear by finding crafting and trading.
The world is all about kingdoms and territory. You can build castles and fortresses and fly your banners. Alliances can happen and so can betrayals and wars. You can conquer big areas or just build a small fishing village and stay out of trouble.
Gates open around the map and they bring dangerous monsters and dungeon bosses. Kingdoms can team up to clear them and grab the rewards and resources. If you control the gates you get a big advantage.
The economy is player driven with markets and jobs. Towns take shared effort to maintain and territory generates valuable resources. The server says it has no wipes and no seasonal resets so progress is meant to last long term.
