"The world used to be a very different place. Families, warring over the right to tax scraps of land, warring over who is to rule all other families, and warring over which God they’re all going to follow. This is Northern Europe in the seventh century. It’s an incredibly fascinating century as far as what it says about the human condition. It’s a century where the desire for unrestrained ambition, power, submission, cruelty and classism was challenged by those who saw a need for humility and manners among Kings. It was a century where the fortunes of many were eclipsed by those of the few as the slow steam-roll of conquest and progress rolled on. This strange era between the Late Antiquity and the Late Medieval period is so fascinating because political fortunes were so transient. The fast-paced competitive, oath-bonded culture of then reminds us a little of today. No one seemed certain of anything, and plans (not to mention buildings) were always made for the short term. States didn’t really exist and if they did, they always fell apart on the death of their King. The only relief from transient fortune and infrastructure seemed to be organized religion, and many an experiment was done to take advantage of it. Times were changing, people were growing more refined, borders were solidifying, stone was being chiseled, deeds were being written down. If ambitious men and women wanted to make a place for themselves in the brave new medieval world, they had to change with the times.."

The Year is 793 A.D. The year when the Viking Age began. Vikings from Denmark had just raided their first of many targets in England: the Monastery of Lindisfarne in Northumbria. A new age of violence and competition was dawning in Northern Europe. Europe's kingdoms would fend off increasing viking raids and conquest, but also grow desperate and fight amongst themselves. Some of the vikings, given time, would settle down to farm and trade in new lands.

The idea of this server is simple. We provide a 4k x 4k map of Northern Europe, and players are free to create their own factions in it, as long as their factions have historical names and locations, or join the existing one. Players within each factions will contribute to their faction by building towns in a historical style, or fight with other faction over land rights. We use a plugin called SavageFactions. Factions are able to claim more land as their player-count or aggressiveness grows!

There are six types of factions in our server: English, Welsh, Scandinavian, Irish, Scottish and French. All factions are expected to fall into one of these groups and start in the right region of our Northern Europe map. Players within the factions are also expected to have historically accurate nicknames set for themselves.

Current Existing factions:
Northumbria
Wessex
Gwynedd
Norway
Pomerania


Staff:
Our Staff Members are currently Dwarfsosi, JaffaMC, Robert_Tool and GaeirmundSvennar (ShudderShockBailiff).

A required Viking-Age resource pack is in the making for us, but right now it is suggested that you use John Smith Legacy.

Hello the creator of this server you can make a medieval server whit custom terain generatet whit more than 400 player and some players have a 50% chance to be a king. You need to buy land make money a village and expand you population the king need to make jobs for his villager players. every player that it just a simple man can be a farmer a priest a leather worker and more . This is one of my litle ideas, sure if you want to do this. i wanted to do my own server like that but i need money to host and help but i can't. You can help me sure if you want a public medieval server for more that 400 players. i am just a simple man and i want just help from a more skilled man. (MY ENGLISH IT BAD OK!).Have a good day if you see this :)

We actually don't need builder at the moment because we build most of our stuff on survival. Thanks for the offer though!
