Currants Where I Come From? WHAT ARE THEY?

Im trying to find out where gooseberries come from the kind that puts you into a fruitcake. I know that raisins are dried grapes, but what are currants. Can anyone help as I need this for a assingnment task. Thanks

Raisins: Raisins you and I know and love typically come from the variety Thompson Seedless, dried currants and dark to sunlight.: Currants are teeny tiny grapes that come from the Zante grape. Originally came from Greece, but is now cultivated in many places around the world. Sultanas: These are the people to confusion because initially these white wine grapes of the sultana grape in Turkey.
