---- How to block a country from accessing my website?

I use the MaxMind API and only block access to specific areas such as login, purchase, etc.

It works great. I setup a failsafe country ISO code of XX. Because from time to time it fails to respond - in which case I assume the visitor is from a "friendly" country and I log the blocked visit as from "XX". This way I can monitor how many failed lookups I get.
