This is a difficult question to answer. Everyone on Earth has his own preferred ideas about creation. If you whittle down all of them into their most basic elements, you find two primary themes: either the universe was created by God(s)/dess(es), or it was born out of some sort of preexisting material. Evolutionism falls into the latter category, citing speculations about a multiverse out of which our universe was born. Likely the second most widespread view today is that of biblical creationism, which holds that God created the universe by the command of His word as recorded in the Hebrew Torah.
If you're searching for a more general folktale (as opposed to a religious belief), fantasy author J.R.R. Tolkien crafted a very detailed creation narrative in the opening chapters of his book The Silmarillion. In it, Eru Ilúvatar (God) inspires the Ainur (angels) to sing a beautiful melody that paints a musical picture of Arda, the world. Then he puts reality to their song and creates Eä (literally, "let it be"), the whole of the universe. There is much more to the tale than just this brief description.

∙ 7y agoThere are Creation-stories all over the world; tens of them if not hundreds. This is because the Creation was a tradition going all the way back and shared by all mankind. As time passed, most of these stories became infiltrated by idolatry, with a phantasmagoria of warring deities. It is the Torah, in Genesis, which preserves the original.See also:

Was Cleopatra a kind or cruel ruler?
To answer your question correctly, you must first remember that we have to judge the ancient rulers by their own standards and not by ours. There was no such thing as a "kind" ruler in the ancient world. The "good emperors/kings" would not hesitate to slit an opponent's throat if they thought he presented a danger. Cleopatra was neither kind nor cruel, but some of her actions, especially the killing of her brother and sister, are positively cruel to us.
