Germany was the country that built the first rockets, specifically the V-2 rocket during World War II. These rockets were developed by the German engineer Wernher von Braun and were used in military operations.
In modern times it was during World War II. Nazi Germany used rockets to bomb London. The Chinese used rockets in the 1800's attached to arrows to fight their enemies.

Answer The British established a Rocket battalion during the Napoleonic Wars in early 1800's. They were used at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. They were also used by the British in the War of 1812 against America---thus the national anthem's line that says "in rocket's red glare". I don't know if this was the first use of rockets. But it was probably the first operational use by a large number of rockets.
