Operative freemasonry, the craft of building monumental structures of quarry stone, was developed during the middle ages in Europe. It was called "freemasonry," because the freemasons worked with freestone, a type of quarry stone, and because they were free men, and not serfs or indentured servants. Speculative freemasonry, the fraternity of freemasons, was created in Scotland when William Schaw, the master of works for King James VI, introduced the Schaw Statutes in 1598 and 1599.

Very few. Freemasonry is not a political organization, nor is it a religion. It's just a fraternity. Freemasonry's tenets are Brotherly Love, Relief, and Truth. That, in a nutshell, is what Freemasonry stands for.
