I found TheNationsSMP and it is a long term survival server that cares a lot about fairness. It says there is no pay to win at all and they want the world to stay stable with a real community.
The main idea is nation building where players can make their own custom nation and lead it. There is also combat themed around history with weapons from the 16th to 18th centuries.
It supports Java and Bedrock cross play so more friends can join together. It also has a brewing system with alcohol mechanics and it uses Valkyrien Skies for physics based machinery with plugins.
They also do regular game nights and events. The server is planned to open in about 1 to 2 months.

Worldbound SMP is a geopolitical survival server where the world is still pretty empty and the first nations are starting to pop up.
Players make nations and build cities with capitals and borders. People team up with alliances and do diplomacy then sometimes it turns into wars that change the map.
The server uses a satellite style world map so the continents and oceans feel more realistic. It is crossplay so Java and Bedrock players can join on 1.21.1+.
If you join early you can end up as one of the big leaders as the world history gets written by the community.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAvalonEarth Geopol Season 2 Wars
AvalonEarth is a geopol EarthSMP server where players make towns and build nations on a huge 1 to 500 Earth map. It works on both Java and Bedrock so more friends can play together.
It uses Towny so you can claim land and grow your place into something real. New players get starter money so anyone can create a nation right away without grinding first.
The server already had a first season back in September and it built a strong community. Season two is live now and it has a lot of new players joining.
If you like conflict there are lots of wars and it sounds pretty active. If you do not want to fight you can stay peaceful and mostly avoid the drama.
Making money is mainly done through jobs plus farming and fishing and they said more ways are coming soon.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAvalonEarth Towny Nations War Or Peace
AvalonEarth is an Earth SMP style geopol server where players make towns and nations and then deal with politics. The map is 1:500 so there is a lot of space to spread out and claim land.
It runs Towny so you can build up your town and grow into a nation. The server gives starter money so anyone can start a nation right away without extra requirements.
You can join on Java or Bedrock. There are lots of conflicts and wars if you want that. If you do not like wars you can try to live peaceful and avoid most of it.
Money is mainly made with jobs plus farming and fishing. The owner says more ways to earn are being added later. The server had a first season and now it is on a second season with a growing community.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
