OCTOBER 23rd
On this day in history in 4004 B.C. the world began.
This is Creation Day, that is according to bishop James Usher (1581—1656). Usher scrutinised the time scale in the Old Testament and by careful and assiduous study, calculated that the world was nearly 6,000 year old, having been created on 23rd October 4004 B.C. at nine o’clock in the morning.
Usher’s theory became a matter of established wisdom until in the nineteenth century, when Charles Darwin postulated the principle of the survival of the fittest known as the Theory of Evolution. Darwin and others stated that as the world could be proved to be over 6,000 years old, then the Bible must be wrong. Theologians countered saying that as the Bible was the word of God, it must be correct and that therefore the scientists had got it wrong. When questioned on skeletal remains of dinosaurs and other creatures, recently unearthed, the theologians retorted that these must have been placed there by the Devil to test man’s belief.
The dispute between the two parties reached its apogee in the twentieth century in the famous Scopes case where a teacher in Tennessee was put on trial for defying the State’s ban on teaching the Evolutionary theory. The cynical defence lawyer scoffed at Usher’s theory using comments such as ‘his Bible must be more accurate than mine’ and ‘nine o’clock in the morning. Was this Eastern Standard Time or Western Time?’
In the twenty-first century, Usher’s ideas have collapsed and Darwin’s theory predominates. It is a case of the survival of the fittest theory.

Your question can be answered Biblically and scientifically:
1.) The world was created by God in His own way and perfection.
2.) There are theories about the beginning of this world:
The Nebula Theory and The Big Bang Theory
In my own opinion, it was created by the Big Bang Theory because no one knows where it all started yet we all know that some bodies in space are made up of gases and rocks.
On the other hand, based on theology, the writers in the Bible were not really scientifically correct. They were inspired by their faith in God so they can write books.

World never started. It was there. We are all small creatures born on it and going to die on it.

Some people believe divine intervention , or God , others believe it was destined by scientific forces.
Religious beliefs cannot be forced on you , nor can scientific ones.
Do some research into these theories and make up your mind.

Here is my answer...If you have any other questions go to biblegateway.com or answersingenesis.com
Genesis 1 (The Message)
The Message (MSG)
Genesis 1
Heaven and Earth
1-2First this: God created the Heavens and Earth—all you see, all you don't see. Earth was a soup of nothingness, a bottomless emptiness, an inky blackness. God's Spirit brooded like a bird above the watery abyss.
3-5 God spoke: "Light!"
And light appeared.
God saw that light was good
and separated light from dark.
God named the light Day,
he named the dark Night.
It was evening, it was morning—
Day One.
6-8 God spoke: "Sky! In the middle of the waters;
separate water from water!"
God made sky.
He separated the water under sky
from the water above sky.
And there it was:
he named sky the Heavens;
It was evening, it was morning—
Day Two.
9-10 God spoke: "Separate!
Water-beneath-Heaven, gather into one place;
Land, appear!"
And there it was.
God named the land Earth.
He named the pooled water Ocean.
God saw that it was good.
11-13 God spoke: "Earth, green up! Grow all varieties
of seed-bearing plants,
Every sort of fruit-bearing tree."
And there it was.
Earth produced green seed-bearing plants,
all varieties,
And fruit-bearing trees of all sorts.
God saw that it was good.
It was evening, it was morning—
Day Three.
14-15 God spoke: "Lights! Come out!
Shine in Heaven's sky!
Separate Day from Night.
Mark seasons and days and years,
Lights in Heaven's sky to give light to Earth."
And there it was.
16-19 God made two big lights, the larger
to take charge of Day,
The smaller to be in charge of Night;
and he made the stars.
God placed them in the heavenly sky
to light up Earth
And oversee Day and Night,
to separate light and dark.
God saw that it was good.
It was evening, it was morning—
Day Four.
20-23 God spoke: "Swarm, Ocean, with fish and all sea life!
Birds, fly through the sky over Earth!"
God created the huge whales,
all the swarm of life in the waters,
And every kind and species of flying birds.
God saw that it was good.
God blessed them: "Prosper! Reproduce! Fill Ocean!
Birds, reproduce on Earth!"
It was evening, it was morning—
Day Five.
24-25 God spoke: "Earth, generate life! Every sort and kind:
cattle and reptiles and wild animals—all kinds."
And there it was:
wild animals of every kind,
Cattle of all kinds, every sort of reptile and bug.
God saw that it was good.
26-28 God spoke: "Let us make human beings in our image, make them
reflecting our nature
So they can be responsible for the fish in the sea,
the birds in the air, the cattle,
And, yes, Earth itself,
and every animal that moves on the face of Earth."
God created human beings;
he created them godlike,
Reflecting God's nature.
He created them male and female.
God blessed them:
"Prosper! Reproduce! Fill Earth! Take charge!
Be responsible for fish in the sea and birds in the air,
for every living thing that moves on the face of Earth."
29-30 Then God said, "I've given you
every sort of seed-bearing plant on Earth
And every kind of fruit-bearing tree,
given them to you for food.
To all animals and all birds,
everything that moves and breathes,
I give whatever grows out of the ground for food."
And there it was.
31 God looked over everything he had made;
it was so good, so very good!
It was evening, it was morning—
Day Six.
