Where did Dodge originate?

Did Dodge originate in another country or is it American? It’s harder to tell these days since shipping cars from place to place is pretty easy.

Dodge originated in
Detroit
, Michigan, meaning it is very much an American company. It was founded as Dodge Brothers, Inc., by John and Horace Dodge in July of 1914.
The two brothers were early stockholders and engine builders for Ford Motor Co., and they used their learned skills to open a mechanic shop before eventually experimenting with making vehicles of their own. This venture eventually turned into the Dodge brand as we know it today.
