The modern day horse was originated in what country?

The modern day horse, *Equus caballus*, is believed to have originated in North America.

While horses are now widely associated with Europe and Asia, their evolutionary journey began in North America millions of years ago. They then migrated across the Bering Land Bridge to Asia and eventually spread to other parts of the world.

Interestingly, horses went extinct in North America around 10,000 years ago, only to be reintroduced by Europeans during the colonial period.
