In the 1860s there were early typewriters invented in Italy, Brazil, Austria, Denmark and the US.
The first commercially sold typewriter seems to be the Hansen Writing Ball, which was sold in Denmark in 1865.
The first typewriter to be commercially successful was invented in 1867 by C. Latham Sholes, Carlos Glidden and Samuel W. Soule in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. The patent was sold to Remington. Remington's first commercial machine appeared in 1873. It was also the first appearance of the QWERTY keyboard.
I'm pretty sure it was invented in Italy...but if I was you I'd check this elsewhere on the web to make sure it's correct.
Thanks
