Tough question to answer because the Chinese, Japanese, Italian, Ancient Greek, Persian, Viking, and many more played a soccer-like ball game long before our era. However, to try to answer your question, it was in England that soccer / football really took shape. In 1863 in England, two football associations (association football and Rugby football) split off in different directions. Therefore, the first Football Association was founded in England.
