Salaam everyone. I hope you are all well. Im new to all of this and I am confused about Islam with so many sects I am really looking for an explanation and guidance on which sect to follow and why? May I have some assistance in this regard please.

I suppose in short my question is what is Shia'aism? what are its beliefs and where did they originate from?

I look forward to your responses

Not nice, verses like these will produce verses like these against the Imams or the Shia. Remember, do good and talk good so people see goodness inshAllah. Our beloved Imam Ja'far (as) said in his book The Lantern of the Path and I quote, Al-Islam.org:

Know that Allah chose companions for His Prophet, honoured them with the noblest mark of honour and robed them in the robe of support, victory and the correct keeping of his company in desirable and undesirable situations. He made the tongue of His Prophet speak about their virtues, excellent qualities and marks of honour; so believe in their love, mention their excellence, and beware of the company of people of innovation, for it will make disbelief and clear loss grow in the heart. If the excellence of some of them is not clear to you, then leave them to the Knower of the Unseen, and say, 'O Allah, I love anyone You and Your Messenger love, and I hate anyone You and Your Messenger hate.' There is no obligation beyond that.

Wassalam

LOL, this is the greatest line of poetry if all time:

"they have the one who practiced sodomy with the youth called afflah."

Such a great poem, mash'Allah.
