List of all badges with full descriptions

I was looking at somebody's profile on Stack Overflow, and I saw Java was one of the badges (bronze as well as silver).

I appreciate if anybody could explain how tags work as badges.

All tags have badges - click on the Badges button, then Tags.

Tags get have bronze, silver and gold badges - awarded to people who got 100, 400 and 1000 upvotes on 20, 80 and 200 non-community wiki answers in the topic.

These badges are called tag specialist badges.

See How do "badges" work and What are tag badges? How do they work?.

    A tag has to have 100 questions before the badges are able to be awarded (see What are tag badges?).
