# SMP (Survival World)

The SMP server is the heart of the Pinecraft Equestrian experience.

This is where you will:
- create your first horse
- build your home and claim your land
- train, feed, and care for your horses
- enter scheduled races
- breed new foals
- grow your stable over time

Whether you want to play casually, become a successful breeder, or compete on the track, the SMP is where your equestrian journey truly begins.

# Getting Started in SMP

## Your First Goals

When starting out, you should focus on:

- getting your first horse
- setting your first /home and setting your first plot
- exploring the world
- getting to know the community

The SMP is designed to support both casual and competitive play, so you can progress at your own pace.

Once you have your first horse, you can begin training, racing, and taking part in other systems across the server.
