Once you have learned to write an coherent question, one might be able to
help you.

Please also learn to quote. The attribution lines are relevant as a posting
replied to now can and will expire later.

No. First of all, nation and country are different subjects. A country can
have, and I daresay by now most countries do have, inhabitants from several
nations. There is also the increasingly likely possibility for a person to
have multiple nationalities.

Second, IP address ranges are allocated to *Regional* Internet Registries
(RIRs), which then allocate them for Local Internet Registries (LIRs). LIRs
include Internet service providers, enterprises, or academic institutions:

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv4#Allocation>
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6_address#IPv6_address_space>

> example
> 50.xxx.xxx.xxx to 100.xxx.xxx.xxx all ip nation A
> 101.xxx.xxx.xxx to 150.xxx.xxx.xxx all ip nation B
> 151.xxx.xxx.xxx to 200.xxx.xxx.xxx all ip nation C

This cannot be correct because several address ranges within those ranges
are reserved for special use already:

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv4#Special-use_addresses>

> between nation is table (every range is assigned at only one nation)?

No. Why do you want to determine the nation/country?
