James Gosling,Patrick Naughton,Chris Warth,Ed Frank and Mike Sheridan were the developers of Java.Java was developed at "Sun Microsystems Inc." in the year 1991.Initially it was named as "Oak" but was renamed "Java" in the year 1995.
Java is related to C++ which is a decedent of C language.As a matter of fact Java's character set is inherited from these two languages.Java was invented to create a platform independent programming language or in other words a universal programming language that would work on any PC on the planet!!
When the coding for Java was being done,"World Wide Web" emerged.Had web not taken shape at that time,java would have remained a language for consumer electronics products.BUT today,as we all know,one of the most important uses of Java is Internet programming.
