Are there any interesting databases, websites, etc. which document various historical databases?
I was able to get some good insight on American history from the bill of rights institute, but for world history/history of individual countries, I'm not sure where to search.
Wikipedia isn't very nice as the sources cited are often blatantly biased, or genuinely unreliable and sometimes there is nothing cited at all.

Try The Great Courses and maybe find some university course uploads. Beyond that, I would mostly stick with pulling research articles from JSTOR or at least Academia.edu if you don't want to spend any money to get into the details and debate over a specific topic.

Not humanly possible, in the end. Just gather sources from opposing viewpoints and weigh the difference.

The bias of primary sources are themselves worth studying. It's the bias of a secondary source that's a problem.

Do you actually purchase The Great Courses? I can't afford that.
