That's a little tricky.
The first evidence for helium - a line in the solar spectrum taken during a solar eclipse - was discovered by a Frenchman, but he was in India at the time, and the helium itself was, of course, in the Sun. However, he thought it was due to sodium, so this may not count.
The first person to realize that this spectral line must be due to a new element was an Englishman; I can't find out where he was when he did so, but I presume it was England.
The first person to find evidence of helium on Earth was an Italian analyzing lava from Mt. Vesuvius (in Italy).
The first person to isolate helium was a Scotsman, but he was working in University College London (England) at the time. Your mileage may vary as to whether Scotland and England are the same country or not.
Since both the realization that helium was a new element and its eventual isolation were done in England, I think that country deserves the nod for the discovery.
What else can I help you with?
What country is Helium discovered in?
England
Helium was discovered in the sun before it was discovered on earth. How?
Helium was discovered in the sun specroscopically
What country was helium discovered in?
The spectral line for helium was first discovered by a French astronomer working in India during a solar eclipse. An English astronomer determine that this spectral line was due to a previously unknown element. An Italian physicist first detected helium on Earth. A Scottish chemist, was the first to isolate helium on Earth. So where was helium discovered? Depending on how you define "discovery" it was discovered in India, France, England, Italy or Scotland.
