This is not altogether strait forward to answer. It depends on which country's history you look at (and what you define as a computer) but certainly the very first computer that could be programmed was (a mechanical computer) invented by Charles Baggage (the difference engine) in In 1822.
Then in 1936, during WW2, Alan Turing described the "Turing" machine, a design which all electronic computers have followed since. The A Mark 2 Colossus computer was the worlds first semi programmable computer and was invented in Blechley Park during WW2 to break the German Enigma codes.
After the war the US was in a better financial position to develop commercial version of computers and began to patent designs (the British did not pursue commercial patents like the US and hence lost out).
The history of the US development of computers can be seen in the related link I will make below.
