Presently, Jainism is believed to have originated in India. But according to some recent findings, very old Jain idols (many of which are pre-vedic) have also been found in Pakistan, Myanmar, Central Asia and Java islands. Thus, it is actually difficult to tell whether or not Jainism actually originated in present day India.
