Is XRP a Chinese company?

Excuse me, could you please clarify something for me? I've been hearing a lot about XRP recently and I'm trying to understand its background. Is XRP a Chinese company? I'm asking because I've seen some discussions online linking it to China, but I'm not sure if that's accurate. Could you possibly provide some insight into this matter? I'd really appreciate it if you could help me understand the origins and affiliations of XRP.
