Is it possible to configure IPTables to only allow connections from a particular country?

I have a webserver which I only want UK residents accessing but I've not been able to determine a complete list of IP's
You do realise that many of the people who read this list are dreadful foreigners too, don't you? Some of them are even the type of chap who would throw another chap's tea into a harbour and declare themselves independent! However, they soon came crawling back, begging to be ruled by King George again ... oh, no, wait a minute ... maybe they didn't. Some even say that SuSE itself may have once had foreigners coding for it, though of course I believe that a system invented by someone with a fine old English name like Torvalds would never really talk to a person from a horrid, 'abroad' country. But seriously, it's called 'the internet' for a reason, and you may find you get a more sympathetic response if you can tell us why you would want to do such a thing. Usually projects like that are associated with dicatatorships - I assume you have something more innocent than mere xenophobia on hand?
If I just blocked all non-RIPE addresses that would restrict me to Europe only but there doesn't seem to be a list per country, does that mean they're all mixed up?
