First: Even American Wikipedia is still safe and good as it is.
But if you are for example worried about US hosting, you can use snapshots of Wikipedia (in all languages) offline on your PC with Kiwix:
e.g. latest English “maxi” version:
https://download.kiwix.org/zim/wikipedia/wikipedia_en_all_maxi_2025-08.zim - Beware! size is 111 GBWikipedia is honestly a bit of a modern miracle, with its unusually robust organization. Policy is thorough and unbiased, moderation is well-done and thorough relative to the size of the site, and its not particularly driven by profit or paying off investors. Its not perfect, but there isn’t anything that comes close for a current, expansive encyclopedia, nonetheless for free.
…none? It’s also free?
Wikipedia is a global project, not one of the USA like Grokpedia…
But the closest things I could give you are…
- https://www.britannica.com/
- https://www.historicacanada.ca/productions/educational-videos/the-canadian-encyclopedia
But if you want an established public wiki site not hosted in the USA, and contributed to mostly by users who aren’t Americans…
Then you need to learn another language like German, Chinese or Japanese. Those websites tend to be hosted in their home country.
