The ISS was built by placing several modules into LEO (Low Earth Orbit) by member countries - US, Russia, Japan, and 10 European Countries (as ESA). These modules were assembled in space to realise the ISS. No rocket would have been able to transport that mass of payload at once into orbit. Modules are still being added until its final completion in 2010.
It wasn't. It was built by and with the cooperation of several nations.
The International Space Station (ISS) was built to serve as a unique microgravity laboratory for scientific research in space. It also fosters international cooperation among multiple countries in the fields of space exploration and technology development.
The International Space Station (ISS) construction was completed in 2011. Since then, upgrades and maintenance have been ongoing, but no major construction projects are currently planned for the ISS.
The International Space Station (ISS) was built over a span of more than a decade, starting with the launch of the first module in 1998. Construction continued until 2011 when the assembly of the station was completed.
U.S. built the unity. Japan works with NASA. Canada built the 55-foot long robotic arm. Lastly,Russia built the two search molecues with life support. This is how these countries were in volved in the International Space Station{ISS}.

The ISS was built by 16 different countries which were : the US, Russia , Japan, Brazil, Canada, Europe, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom. It was also one of the reasons why it was built so slowly. The ISS was being moved randomly to get built piece by piece by piece. Thats pretty much all I got.

The International Space Station, or ISS, has been assembled in orbit from parts built here on Earth. The first segments of the ISS were launched into space in 1998, with other parts being added by several Space Shuttle missions. The ISS is not yet complete, and more parts are still under construction.

The International Space Station was created by multiple countries. The first modules were built and launched by Russia. Most of the ISS modules and other components were built and launched by the United States. Russia built the 2nd largest percentage of the ISS followed by Japan, Europe, Canada, Italy and Brazil which built the smallest percentage. Most modules were brought to the International Space Station by space shuttle missions. The remainder to launched by Russian rockets. The European Space Agency and also launches resupply missions to the ISS.
The International Space Station (ISS) was not invented, but rather it was a collaborative project involving multiple countries. The ISS program was officially launched in 1998 with the assembly of various modules in space, with the first crew occupying the station in 2000. The ISS serves as a unique scientific laboratory for international research in microgravity environments.
