i don't think there really is a country of origin for swimming. As long as humans have been in existence people have been enjoying the water. Every country has lakes and oceans, etc. even if they didnt actually have Swimming Pools until the last century, they swam outdoors in natural settings.

There is no one credited with inventing swimming. Swimming dates back to ancient times and therefore it is unclear who the first person to swim was.

Swimming is thought to be thousands of years old and may have been started by the Ancient Egyptians. Swimming as a sport was introduced in Great Britain in the 19th century.
