Buddhism developed after the Shakyamuni Buddha became enlightened and shared some of his understanding with others. Those students studied his teachings, meditated and sometimes became enlightened themselves. In turn, they taught what they learned to other interested people, and eventually there was a community or Sangha of practitioners of the teachings of the Buddha. Once that community matured and the practices were codified to some extent, it became known as Buddhism.

What is the underlying principle of all the different sects of Hinduism?
There were four Indian Castes at the time of Buddha's birth. Buddha was born in the royal caste. Brahmin was the highest caste. Buddha learned everything about Brahmin teachings, but was not satisfied with them. He was also not satisfied with the teachings of other religions, and finally he found his own path towards englightenment to eliminate the sufferings of birth, aging, sickness, and death. Brahmin religion later evolved into Hinduism, merging some of the Buddha's teachings. This happened after Buddha's death. Enlightenment in Buddhism is the realization of the three law: (1) all things are impermanent, (2) all things lack inherent existence (no-self), (3) and that nirvana is perfect quiesence. It is attained via Prajna Wisdom.
