For starters. There isn't much literature worth anyone's time made after Augustine of Hippo. So the Ancient Greeks is the correct answer.

Now let us consider that it was the Spanish who gave birth to Saint John of the Cross, so Spain wins just because Dark Night of the Soul exists.

To wrap up, Americans killed poetry with Walt Whitman and further destroyed literature popularizing the novel so let us stop pretending that anyone but the French made good literature after the 20th Century
