Buddhism wasn't exactly "made." A following came about because of the teachings of the Buddha. Siddhartha Gautama was born in Nepal around 563 BC. Around the age of 35 he achieved enlightenment (Nirvana). Upon this enlightenment, he realized the Four Noble Truths, the steps that would free anyone from suffering & lead the path to Nirvana. That is the core of Buddhism and when the Buddha began orally passing on his findings to others, whoever chose to listen. The Buddha taught others until his death 45 years later, whereupon his teachings were passed on orally, eventually being committed to text .
