Minecraft Factions is a multiplayer game mode and plugin primarily used on survival or PvP servers. It revolves around creating and managing groups called factions, which are player-run organizations that claim land, form alliances, wage wars, and strive for dominance in the server.
Factions introduces a strategic element to Minecraft by encouraging teamwork, base-building, raiding, and diplomacy. The core goal is to grow your faction, amass resources, and either cooperate with or conquer other factions.
