Hi,
A quick look-up on Wikipedia:
"Innocenzo Manzetti considered the idea of a telephone as early as
1844, and may have made one in 1864, as an enhancement to an automaton
built by him in 1849."
Why doesn't Italy have 001?
Don't answer that the US invented electricity: it is said that the
Babylonians did this some time earlier.

The Americans have invented very little indeed.
What the Americans have done is pinched other people's inventions and
improved them immensely, to the extent
that they can fool people they invented the things in the first place.
Some Americans even think they invented English; which was invented by a
load of vulgar northern Frenchmen
attempting to speak Anglo-Saxon and getting it wrong.
