Italy, but … Italy, but precisely when I don’t know. Probably during the early Renneisance.
The word “bank” is actually derived from the Italian word for “bench” because the moneychangers would sit on benches and trade money. And “bankrupt” is from the Italian phrase for “broken bench” because a moneychanger who went under water would get his bench broken so he couldn’t do business from it anymore.
At least that’s the story I heard.
