At the beginning the layers I H F E were formed in a horizontal layers then tilting of the beds occurred.
After tilting faulting G happened.
Faulting is followed by erosion and period of non deposition J
After J , D B A were formed . And K is intruded into all the existing layers .
Later A is eroded and followed by an unconformity L and finally C deposited
