That is what /etc/hosts is for if IIRC. I have a domain name I could
put it in there, but most of the time I just see a digitized IP
address that is dynamic.

You asked about countries.
The link you gave was for email. I am not talking about email. I am
talking about literally blocking whole countries from access. Here is
my /etc/hosts.deny

# /etc/hosts.deny

ALL:.cn,.eg,.iq,.ir,.jo,.kp,.ly,.sa,.sd,.su,.sy,.za
