Buy recommendations Non-American die makers?

Are all dies made in the US?
I’m in the market for several die sets and would rather get something made elsewhere but I don’t know of any dies made outside of the US?

Frankford Arsenal I believe are all made in China... But I wouldn't recommend them.

I get not wanting to but US made stuff but really if you're looking into reloading realize majority of the the components are made in the US as well.

Pretty sure all the Hodgdon powders are made in the US, majority of the primers, most projectiles.

Edit: actually surprised a lot of powders are Australian or Canadian

Kind of SOL to avoid the US in this hobby sadly.

Vihtavuori, Lapua, Ginex, Sellier & Bellot, Fiochi, Magtech to list some powders, ogives, cases (brass) and primers that are not made in the us.
