I cannot give a general advice, but what worked for me is to put 'my' world's history in a chronological order using a time line. What started when, which incidence is the root cause for the other and so on. Climbing this ladder year by year was and still is great fun. And If you ask for a software, I'd straight away would answer 'Obsidian'. It's link/ backlink feature is just awesome to keep your ideas structured. Have fun and good luck!
