1998
The International Space Station (ISS) was launched in 1998.
The International Space Station (ISS) was not launched from a specific location. It was assembled in space using modules launched by various space agencies, including NASA, Roscosmos, ESA, JAXA, and CSA.
The ISS is almost like a puzzle. The first piece of it was launched into space in 1998, and then the second piece launched and connected to the first piece, and we're still launching and connection sections (as of 2009.) The station is expected to be completed in 2011.
The International Space Station (ISS) was a collaborative effort involving multiple space agencies including NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA, ESA, and CSA. It was assembled in space over several years using modules launched on different rockets by these space agencies.

Modules
The International Space Station (ISS) was a collaborative effort involving multiple space agencies including NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA, ESA, and CSA. It was assembled in space over several years using modules launched on different rockets by these space agencies.
The first ISS module launched is the Zarya module of the Russian section of the station. It was launched last 20 November 1998 on a Russian Proton launcher.
The first module of the International Space Station launched into orbit was Zarya, which was launched by Russia in November 1998. Zarya served as a fuel storage and propulsion module for the early stages of the ISS assembly.
The first part launched in 1998. It's not yet finished, the last module is supposed to launch in 2012. More modules could be added in the future.
