I have never used GeoIP my self so I can't say for sure, but it was my 
(mis)understanding that GeoIP was intended to associate IP ranges with 
specific countries.  Thus the OPs request may seems to be a perfect 
match for GeoIP.  But seeing as how I have never used it my self, I 
don't know how it is implemented.  I have not really given it any thought...

If you know any more about GeoIP please enlighten me.  TIA
