This is a great question, and it's not as simple many comments here make it seem to be. This Veritasium video has a great explanation (and an enormous ball of molten sodium).

The earths rotation creates it. Or was this rhetorical.

No, it was a serious question. Does anything that rotates create a magnetic field even if it is not an electrical material?

In case of Earth, Wikipedia describes [1] it as being "[..] generated by electric currents due to the motion of convection currents of a mixture of molten iron and nickel in Earth's outer core". This makes Earth a geodynamo [2]. (The aforementioned Wikipedia page is actually really long and detailed, a lot more than I would have thought)

The iron core but there are many open questions https://news.mit.edu/2020/origins-earth-magnetic-field-myste...

Basically: moving electric charge = magnetic field. It's equivalent, that's why it's called electromagnetism: it's one and the same force.

The Earth rotates, liquid iron (inside Earth) flows => a current flows in the iron => there is a magnetic field.

No, otherwise Mars would have a magnetic field just like Earth.
