"Scientists have been able to reconstruct detailed information about the planet's past. The earliest dated Solar System material is dated to 4.5672 ± 0.0006 billion years ago, and by 4.54 billion years ago (within an uncertainty of 1%) the Earth and the other planets in the Solar System formed out of the solar nebula—a disk-shaped mass of dust and gas left over from the formation of the Sun. This assembly of the Earth through accretion was largely completed within 10–20 million years. Initially molten, the outer layer of the planet Earth cooled to form a solid crust when water began accumulating in the atmosphere."

The Earth was created 4.54 billion years ago when part of the Sun's accretion disc agglomerated into a spherical body. At that time, shortly after the birth of the Sun itself, the solar system's matter was much more scattered around, in the form of asteroids and dust rather than planets. This "matter cloud" has been called a Bok globule, and these globules have been observed in other parts of the Galaxy. Scientists have determined the age of the EarthEarthEarth relatively precisely using isotope dating of the world's oldest rocks.

God created the earth in just 6 days on the 7th day he rested
Once there was nothing, then God (who was in the nothing, making it not nothing but God) got bored and wasted his time making us. He had a bit of a gambling problem, so made a bet with the devil for our souls, he made a giant roulette wheel for the gambling to happen. We now call this wheel earth.
That's also why the earth rotates around the sun.
Someone said 'Let there be a beach!' and poof the earth was created!
1. This is not actually a question.
2. Made? Isn't that kinda suggestive?
