According to several websites it’s Marocco.

“Morocco was the first country to recognize the new United States in 1777, and the Tangier American legation building, now a museum, is the oldest diplomatic property of the U.S. abroad.”

Your Majesty, America will never forget that in 1777, the first nation in the world to recognize the United States was the Kingdom of Morocco.

– Bill Clinton in June 2000

It was England… In the time of the signing the Declaration of Independence by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania the US consisted of 13 colonies under the rule of England’s King George III.
