Markdown is a lightweight markup language with plain-text-formatting syntax. Source: Wikipedia

This means that markdown is a simple markup language, i.e. a system that enriches text, so displaying the file can include formatting like the one you see here. In comparison to other markup languages (like e.g. HTML), the "light-weightedness" of markdown aims to allow for clear reading of the raw markdown source code, but at the cost of providing comparatively few format features.

Short: Markdown does cool formatting things with your text using comparatively simple commands.
