There's a plethora of sources for sure of the finer details on things but as for canon order of events and understanding the physics of the universe... Playing through the MSQ and maybe any interesting side quests to you would be your best bet. Observing the NPC's both in the main story and the side ones that just so happen to live around Eorzea. You'd be surprised how much you can learn just by talking to a random generic NPC that's standing off to the side doing nothing, like how they talk, political reasons they're there, issues they're dealing with that may be common, etc.
I am a new player within FFXIV, however, truly I played the game last year but I was forced to leave it because of other duties. Nevertheless, I am going to come back and here comes my request.
I want to start writing/creating the story of my character, but I don't know what the main principles of the world are. Where could I find a source which introduces me to the universe chronologically?
I know that there are a lot of threads here on forum; they are mainly discussions. I also know that there is a wiki website and the fandom one. Nonetheless, I deeply wish to create a hero who will be logicial to the given world. Thanks a lot.
If you like videos though and want to learn specifics in the game's story that you may have already played or you just want a finer grasp of... I've often liked this channel for videos about lore.

He goes into pretty good details about particular events that have happened in FF14's history. While the videos may be long, they're very descriptive and go into decent order of when what happened and what it caused. Good luck and most importantly, have fun!
