Why develop? Every region has a specified IP range. One can use existing softwares to block a given range.

Even if you want to develop, 'yes' it is somewhat possible to block a country. Read about IP Address[^] here. How they are defined and what can be your plan/logic to handle it.

If you want to block the countries coming to your website, Google search on "block country by IP address". There are tons of softwares available for free use. You can also look at IP blocks[^] for specific country and deny/block them.

If you want to develope your own software then you can check the IP range that is from china from the link I gave you in answer. Once ou do that you might have to check about blocking specific IP address or IP address range using the language of your choice. I haven't dome this type of software before so I can't really suggest you the language which you should choose.
