Meraki SMP is a survival world where people do not just live alone. Players build real towns and then turn those towns into nations. The map changes because players make alliances and sign treaties and sometimes they break them.
Towny makes it all about land and borders. Towns can grow and join together. Your town also produces daily resources so where you settle actually matters and fights can happen over valuable regions.
War is not forced but it can happen. Nations can do siege wars and there can be conflicts over resource sites and events that change borders. You can try to stay neutral but it can cost you.
The economy is player made. There are no admin shops and no villager trading. People run markets with VillagerMarket or QuickShop and trade groups can form to get rich.
The overworld uses Terra so the terrain is dramatic with cliffs and valleys and rivers. There are also quality of life features like Veinminer SmartSpawners AuraSkills and ClickMobs plus Brewery Project and BetterHorses. Java and Bedrock players can join.
