It began when scientists found an organism, 2000 years old which they identified as being one of the Ancients (Cetra). It was named, Jenova.
The Cetra were an Ancient race of people who lived on the planet before humans did, They had special powers and could communicate with the planet. When they died they would go to the promised land, a place which Shinra decided would be full of Mako energy, so of course they wanted to find it. They appointed three scientists to work on the Jenova project, where they would recreate the Cetra using the cells of Jenova.
Shinra wanted the recreated Cetra to lead them to the promised land. And it was through this project that Sephiroth was created.
Contrary to what Sephiroth thinks, Jenova isn't really his mother.
The information he found out must have been missing a few important points, maybe nobody recorded it? Maybe Sephiroth misread/misunderstood the information? MAYBE THE BOOKS WERE LIES! (Or perhaps Sephiroth couldn't read very well! Okay, bad joke...). Because really Sephiroth is a normal human, just a bit altered +B. He was the child of Lucrecia and Hojo the two assistant scientists in the Jenova Project.
When Lucrecia was pregnant Hojo decided he would inject her with Jenova cells so that she would give birth to a child with powers of the Cetra. Lucrecia agreed but after giving birth to Sephiroth she collapsed and disappeared. After thinking it through, my view is that Lucrecia did die but not a whole death, because she says in the waterfall that the Jenova cells in her won't let her die, in my view I think she means that the Jenova cells keep her soul alive and won't let her pass on peacefully.
Ah ha, but there's more, so Sephiroth thinks that Jenova is his mother but really she isn't, he also believes she is one of the Ancients, but she isn't.
During the Jenova Project the last survivor of the real Cetra was found alive and well, this woman (Ifalna) was interveiwed by professor Gast, and he was told the truth about the Ancients and Jenova. The crisis which struck the planet was Jenova, who arrived on a meteor (quite possibly THE Meteor). Jenova, being the planet-hopping virus that she is then infected the Cetra who came to get rid of her, wiping almost all of them out!
