In what country was Opel founded in 1898?

in some countries they are called Vauxhall

I've not been to Germany

Popplewick , That should be Vauxhall & Opel.

Popplewick , Vauxhall and open are associated with English and Caribbean early car consumer markets. ! ! !

so opel was a German car company owned by US corporations through out all of WWII???
