Very active and fun 1.8.9-1.21 anarchy, survival, and creative server! We have a relatively short history but that adds to the charm! Stake your claim in a survival world or tough it out on the anarchy world with absolutely ZERO rules! Creative mode includes many plots to explore or space to build your own creations to display!

This is a chill modded SMP that is based around Create and a bunch of its add ons. People build big factories and do automation and also mess with trains.
The world uses Terralith so the terrain looks really lush and scenic and it gives lots of cool places to build. The server is about nations and lore and community projects so you can team up and build stuff together.
PvP and conflict is mutual only between nation owners so it is not the main focus. The server is up most of the time but you might see random restarts sometimes.
It also has Farmer’s Delight for better food. There are copycat style building tools and Macaw’s building mods for more decoration. There is Superb Warfare for extra gear and tech but it is not the main focus. YUNG’s better structure mods are in too like better strongholds and desert temples and more.
I found REGNUM and it feels like a world that is meant to last. It is Java 1.21.11 and it is long term survival with no map resets. It is pvp and it leans semi anarchic so you are not getting handheld.
The whole point is minimal laws and maximum consequences. Players handle most problems through deals and alliances or straight up fighting. Staff mainly steps in for basic boundaries so the server stays fair and people are not harassed.
It sits between vanilla survival and a more serious medieval politics server. People build castles and claim lordships then go to war and lay siege. There are tools for stuff like commanding undead armies and capturing enemies. Nights are harder and there are balanced quality of life plugins.
It is whitelist only and it sounds like a small group that wants more people. The vibe is competitive in game but still friendly outside of it.
LegionCraft is a OneBlock survival server where you start from a single block and keep grinding to grow your island. It feels like every block matters because it is all about building up from almost nothing.
There are challenging bosses you can fight and they drop keys. Those keys are used for crates so you can pull rare loot and get better gear. There are also chunk hoppers so you can automate parts of your island and keep progressing.
The server says it is no pay to win so it is more about playing smart and putting in time. If you like building grinding fighting and looting this place is made for that.
This is a Broomstix SMP Creative server that runs on the latest 1.21.11 and it supports Java and Bedrock cross play. It is set to hard difficulty and it is made for people who want to build and also still have that survival challenge.
The server has custom enchantments and a neat trick where you can put a lead on mobs to teleport them. Every Sunday you can fly in the overworld which makes big projects way easier.
Claims are handled with ProtectionStones so your land stays safe and the server is no grief. There is a bartering economy system plus server shops a public market and tutorial warps.
If you like PvP there is a main arena with keep inventory. You can also use random teleport in the overworld and use homes and private messaging and player to player teleports like tpa.
There is Minecraft to Discord integration so chat stays connected and the staff is responsive. They also do homework help on Discord and there are voting ranks and rewards too.
I found a casual Bedrock Realm that sticks close to vanilla with only a few small changes that make the base game feel better.
It has quests you can do for rewards so progression feels more fun and less grindy.
The big focus is player driven lore and events where everyone shows up and does stuff together.
You can start your own city state and keep things peaceful or build it up and even start wars. It has room for builders and also for PVP so both kinds of players can shine.
There are a few rules to keep things balanced so people still have freedom but it stays fun for everyone.
