it indeed would not be simple because for all intents and purposes those ips would be seen as State side based. The only way would be to block based on more advanced rules. It would have to be done on a Layer 3 level where the filtering is done through routing. As even if they are on a USA based IP range, they are still traversing foreign network hops which use regionally based IP's.

So if you block those IP's on a routing/layer-3 level, you will be able to block the country.

But gone are the days of just using htaccess then
