Answer by AaronBSam2
Pierogi are of untraceable origin – in many countries they are claimed to be “original traditional food”. They have strong links to Slavic culture, and may also have originated among other European peoples, such as: Poles, Ukrainians, Romanians, Russians, Lithuanians, Latvians, and Slovaks. There is a definite similarity to Italian ravioli. In East Asia, similar food is served, such as Chinese jiaozi, Japanese gyoza, and Korean mangu. There is speculation, well-founded or not, that the Mongols or Persians brought the recipe to the West.

Pretty much as Aaron explained. Almost every culture has some form of 'dumplings', whether savory or sweet.
Also called perogies, varynyky, pyrohy.
